Any idea what these are on my hammer?

These small black “dots” appear from time to time on only one of my hammers in qt. The photo is under a magnifying glass. I saw a few and they disappeared. I dipped Sunday with bayer and these were there this morning. I don’t know if they are a critter or something completely unrelated. The coral has been dipped several times with bayer and coral rx. #reefsquad Worried this could be a bad bug.... there are four in the picture below. Coral seems healthy otherwise. Thanks.

Spirobid worms, and maybe a feather duster

Just to be clear are you referring to these black dots?

Nawww.

No idea on that, could be some hitch hiking bug or algae spot. If the spots do not move I would not be too concerned if the corals otherwise appears healthy.

Thanks. They do seem to move. Trying to figure what they could possibly be... I have dipped this piece several times 5-7 days apart. If they are bugs they are tough ones.

Could they be flatworms possibly? I would think the dip would take care if them if it was.....

Found another one on a different hammer... all in my coral qt. I will keep trying to get a better photo.
