They all look like photos of flatworms.

Some are harmless. Some can eat corals.

Many people consider them to be a pest and won't want you to share things from your tank without knowing that you have them so they can try to eliminate them before putting the item in their tank.

Saliferts Flatworm Exit has mixed results on them.

Best of luck,

Roy

I agree, that first one is not like any I've seen pictures of although it still looks like a flatworm.

Do you have access to flatworm exit? I wouldn't scrub my rocks as that will kill all the good critters in your tank. Wrasses, and sometimes mandarins supposedly eat them. What all is in your tank?

Siphoning as many as you can out is a real good idea.

Are they on the rocks and the corals? How many are in the tank? Do they behave differently when the lights are on and when the lights are off?

thanks,

in base rock are more than the live rock, and they appear when I turn on the light, when the light is turn off they hide.

In some corals exist too example: in the base of euphyllia.


many thanks, today I siphoned all the rocks and tonight I will put a mandarin green.



thanks to all for your great help
