Pests on Finger Leather??

I would also assume that you have a lot more those if there are that many on that coral.

You could use flatworm exit, just be careful with that stuff
 
Some wrasses might also help, would depend on tank size. I would avoid fish till your tank has been fallow of the velvet for 72 days though.

But Halichoeres or Pseudocheilinus(much more aggressive genus) both are known to eat coral pests.
 
hmmm maybe it's just sps corals then? There was a post a while back, a user freshwater dipped some sps corals and they all rtn'd and died on him. I've always just done bayer mixed with saltwater dips. But if freshwater dips work then I learned something new today :)
Yes on the no freshwater dipping of sps, it cost me dearly. Now it's 15-20 minutes in Coral Rx mixed with tank water, then two dip stations of saltwater. Killed a Myagi tort and a couple acros.
 
75G DT but its currently sitting follow due to velvet outbreak... I am going to get flatworm exit or flatworm rx and treat the whole tank. I have only seen them on the large finger leather currently.
 
Well here is the after picture.. Tons of flatworms and a small starfish. As long as the coral bounces back I would say this was very effective.

I agree.I would check to throughout the aquarium for infestation.
