Flat worms?

Sun was my suspect and likely the cause of algae issues as the UV from sunlight will penetrate shades-blinds- Curtains. Place a sheet of black construction paper from Walmart stationery on side facing windows and you will see a drastic reduction in algae moving forward
Thanks for advice
 
Fwiw I had another type of flatworm and for some reason they all accumulated on my goniopora. I ended up dipping the coral and got a good majority of them. Now when I see one I shoot a small amount of h2o2 on them and they whither and die.

Think my situation is far worse than what I saw last night, pics from just now.

Just an update, had my aquarium guy come over to help with issue as they rapidly multiplied. I work many hours and didn't have time to resolve myself.

Drops, big water change and added carbon is what was done 2 days ago and BAM! Cleared up, I knoticed 1 or 2 tonight as he said was expected but dang does the tank look 100% better. He has been doing this 25+ years so I trust everything he does. Also, have him on a once a week schedule from now on. I know this sounds lazy to most people but again, I manage a car dealership. Worked from 9-930 yesterday so time is very limited. I appreciate everyone's responses and will continue to post and ask questions as I seek knowledge in the hobby. Thanks again!
