Oh boy! They aren't any fun. Sorry you have to deal with them. They don't look like flatworms to me

K so there were only like 6 of them and I suctioned them off the glass and haven't seen any since. Do I just need to keep watch for them? Or do something else?

Yellow tail damsels will usually eat them, wrasses will sometimes eat them too.

Six line wrasses, Mandarins, scooter blenies, damsels, arrow crabs.... Only some will but I have seen all of these eat the little buggers.

I heard manderins are hard to keep alive if not in a fully established aquarium. When I got the live rock, sand and water from the tank I got it had copepods in it so would I be getting one? I love manderins!!

You shouldnt attempt them till your tank is a year old. (unless you can find one eating frozen and then it probably wouldnt eat the flat wormsConfused)
