Possible ghost flat worm. If so it's harmless

I'd kill any flatworms I found.

Would you use flatworm exit?

I've never tried it, didn't want to add it in my dt. I just dipped corals, repeating the process over the course of a few months untill I was confident the adults and eggs had completely been eradicated. This worked on the 2 types I've run across, the aefw's and the euphylia eaters. Good luck and always get rid of any type of flatworms.

Not a flatworm. Looks like a harmless sand-skater isopod:

“Sand skater” isopod (Sphaeromatidae/Serolidae). These "pods" are harmless scavengers:

That looks like an isopod to me as well based on how it's moving around. Free fish food.

R2R folks steered me away from this recently. Sounds like you have to follow directions exactly and have a little luck. Hive mind apparently says manual removal and natural predators are the answer.

Adding miracle cures to my tank is always a last resort. It did not used to be, but it is now...

What size tank do you have? A lot of species of wrasse would eat it if it's a flatworm or an isopod.
