Can you snap a pic of them? Guessing they are Red Planaria Flatworms. They are manageable for sure. A proper id will help with proper suggestions.

can't get a good pic with my iPhone, sorry.. but I googled the name and they look exactly like that.. I recall seeing them at this tiny hole in the wall reef store in mass numbers through out their refugium, after I had already bought a frag of zoas a week before from them.. I assume that's how they hitch hiked their way into my tank. I have a 28g nano cube, with a goby, harlequin shrimp, sexy shrimp, and a pom pom crab. I've heard of some fish eating flatworms but would these fish harm any of my inverts?

+1 to that. I tried every "natural" solution to no avail. EXIT worked great. May take a couple treatments though.If they are the so called rust or brown flatworm, Salifert flatworm exit will take care of them in a second!...it's ideal you do something quickly they can get out of hand pretty fast!
