Someone said these orange specs looked like a flatworm. I thought it was just algae at first but I do think they’re moving.
Flatworm or something else?

The video worked for me, Im not sure what it is, but it looks like its your flow rate that is making them move more so than the organism moving itself does that appear correct? If that is the case if may be a type of macro algae because it does not look like GHA or Bryo.

That’s what I thought at first too.. that vid was from a few days ago and it looked flat/flaky but now I definitely can say they are moving around and look more worm like. They move extremely slowly, and hands are a bit shaky, but see this vid from just now. If I come back and take another pic later they’ll be in different spots.

See the vid above and more pics here with only whites on. Unfortunately think you’re right. My Clowns are coming in this weekend so not sure my best plan of action.

Then my previous statement is null and void. I am sorry im not much help then. If they are a species of flatworm you can use flatworm exit, but make sure the siphon out the dead ones as soon as possible as they will nuke your tank from their toxins when they die. Certain species of wrasses will make a nice snack out of them if that is a viable option to you.

Oh and I see some have a tiny tiny red dot on one end of some.
