Friend or Foe

Found on the frag plug of my soft leather coral, I have since nudged it off into the rock. Should I be concerned about these new little critters? About 3 of them, popped up fast in the last week. Thanks!

Yep vermatids and if you can kill all of them now I strongly advise it. I'm not a huge fan of killing hitchhikers but these nasty critters can become a a plague.

Thanks! I have removed them now and will monitor for more
