Hitchhikers guide says just to watch them. Unless they get overwhelming they aren't "bad".

There seems to be a lot of them so I'm going to order some flatworm exit and nuke them

Ok thanks

Those guys don't have a long life span according to liveaquaria and forums claim that it's easier to find rocking horse poop than it is to find a blue velvet nudibranch haha I got a good laugh from it so had to share

I have a few of those in my sump, and some clear ones too. They never make it into the DT though, I think my wrasses eat them haha
I wouldnt use FE unless theyre really bad. But I would be careful too-some FW release toxins in the water column when they die.

I was always told that when you see them, it means youre doing something right

I just turkey baster blasted one of my live rocks with flatworms on it they were flying around and my six line wrasse was getting them like a fighter jet , it was pretty impressive. So maybe I can keep doing that for a while and maybe nuke them when the population thins out cause I definitely ain't gonna siphon those tiny things out manually, that's just crazy.
