Dang it I have worms! I have noticed them congregating on the glass lately and was hoping they would run their course. But I sent a picture of one of my SPS to someone and noticed them on the rocks in the pic Looked in my tank with a magnifying glass and they are all over my rock. They dont seem to be bothering any corals so far.... My tank is barebottom right now but before when I had sand my yellow corris wrasse wiped them out. I am about to order some flatworm exit but I really hate using chemicals. What fish besides the wrasse and the blue damsel will eat these things?

They look like plain old planaria and will go away if their food source is removed.
Try feeding less for awhile
 
neon blue goby will also eat them. They can be kept in pairs. IME, even in a smallish tank, they didn't venture too far outside their spot in the rocks, so it can take them a while to reduce the numbers.
