i hope they aren't an SPS eating bug...

i saw them when i got home...and went to find some tweezers to try and pick them off, and by the time i came back they were gone/moved...can't see them on any of my other SPS...YET! :D

That look flatworm'y, but guess the only way to be sure is to try and get them out. Next time you see them, get a pippette and suck them out for a closer look, alternatively, take out the colony dip it and look at the results.

yeh i thought flatworms...wierd thing is i've never seen them before...and nothing new has gone in since i can remember...except some zoa frags from amwell, so perhaps they came in on those?

what dip do you reccomend mate? and is it literally just a case of dipping the coral in a container of dip and taking it straight out again? or do you leave it in for a while

thanks
