polyclad flatworm maybe ? very possible its causing your issue, many are predatory on corals

 

[DSC reef]

+1 for polyclad

 

[DEWreefing]

Yup

thanks all for the input and now im trying to kill and remove them. I picked up some flatworm solution doesn't seem to be doing anything so I ordered flatworm exit hopefully that will do the job.. any one else have ideas how to remove these or how to help the already dieing torches.... and is it just me but why do pest always attack the expensive and beautiful corals first.

I'm not sure if FW exit does anything for polyclads, could be wrong but I think it's only effective for planarians, I know us Acronuts wished it worked on all flatworms! lol

yeah my local shp said try this or start dipping everything in revive I gues that's like a super treater but im afraid they are in my crush coral flooring thus the need to do a full tank treatment

Melafix is better on acros

Melafix may be too mild as its not a dip in its own manner. They eat snails like candy and reproduce quickly. An actual dip, even lugols iodine will wipe them out
