Very small slug type thing

Sorry I don't have a picture, my cheap camera couldn't possibly get a decent shot. My description will have to due. They are a blueish color with white spots/stripe down their backs. Round head and tail is forked. My snails have been laying eggs all over the place, which I find kinda gross, but could they be baby snails?

 

Just looked at some flat worm pictures. Has the same shape as some but not the color. So..flat worm mabye?

No big deal. Just keep any eye on them - many species are know to eat soft corals.

How small is small? Like, 1/4" or like 2mm? ?

 

Hopefully smaller than that completely absurdly tl;dr signature.

 

 

Why so serious?

Like 1-4 mm

Ooh, that DOES sound like flatworms. Oh no. Little bastards. Sorry guys. Check some threads about getting rid of them - there's chemical and livestock methods...both have advantages and disadvantages.

I sucked one out, the other went into a hole. I've only spotted a few so far. Too bad my firefish doesn't eat them.
