I just got a coral shipment in and as I was inspecting them I noticed this white round thing on a blue Stylo. I took the best pic my iPhone can get. If anyone can give me an ID that would be great. What ever it is it’s on the right hand top branch right after the Y

Dip all your corals, no matter what. Melafix works best, but set an egg timer for 5 minutes (don't go over 5 minutes), but 3 to 5 minutes usually works best. Also, always remove it from the frag plug.
 
That is a flatworm for sure, the question is which kind none are good but the worse would be Acro eating kind as stated do not use that frag plug and dip.

Honestly never trust any seller I have received AEFW from Live Aquria many times.
 
I can't really see it, as I am on my phone, but take a gander at the link below and look through the flatworms there. You should be able to find what it is.


Thank you for the website. After checking it out the closest thing I came to was (pumpkin flatworms).

I always dip before I put anything in tank. If I spot something I like to try to ID it before I start any process of dipping. Just in case if it’s to risky even after dipping I wouldn’t want to introduce into my tank.
