Mackerel Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Any ideas?? I have never seen these before and couldn't find any info on the forum. Link to comment
CJJon Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Maybe a Amphiscolops sp. If so, harmless. They can be a pain if they start to multiply, but they don't cause any real harm. They don't eat coral. Link to comment
ReefWeeds Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Definitely a flatworm, but not the bad kind. From my experience, an algae eater. I have them as well. Link to comment
patback Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 From what I was told a while ago, they eat copepods. Link to comment
Mackerel Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Ok, I'll heed your guys' advice and assume they are harmless. I know some wrasse eat them, but are there any invertebrates that do? Maybe an emerald crab or a coral banded shrimp? Link to comment
CJJon Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Most likely they will go away by themselves. Manually remove the ones you do see if you like, but these things tend to be self limiting. I've got thousands of stomatella right now in my system... Link to comment
