Hmmmm.... can you get a better picture of those? Also, do you notice any bite marks on the coral itself? I have seen lots of pods coming off of a coral in dip.... they usually dont stick around long enough for a picture. I would be concerned about the numbers and the look of them. A better picture would be very helpful. Even a short video would help.

Its hard to tell form your picture. Flat worms are flat. Other worms are round. Brilliant. Pods that large will have have a shrimp like structure

The acro has been in qt tank for 3 dqys now.

Take the frag out and scrape a couple off.... you can do it on a dish or a piece of paper. Try to look at how it moves... If it is shrimp like.... you are ok. If it wiggles and slithers... I know.... technical terms... I would suspect flatworms. Does not mean they are AEFWs.... If you can get a better look at the individual organisms... you should get a pretty good idea. If you can get a better picture of what you scrap off... I am sure others can help id too. Also, while the frag is out of the water, scrutinize the coral. If you see small discolored dots...these could be an indicator of bite marks...which could mean AEFWs.

Kinda looks like some are on the coral itself. That's usually not good if they are. What did you use to dip with?
