Please help with I.D

[Tailfisher]

Hello All , can someone please help me I.D this critter. I have been noticing one or two on the glass this past week and today I found them all over a piece of green monti cap on back of tank. I pulled it out and dip in revive to remove them . Rinsed several times before placing back in tank. I would like to know what they are and how to treat them without killer several clams and acro's. Thanks and hope to hear back so I can destress some.

Hello , that's what I thought they were and haven't seen them in many years and I only remember seeing them when they were a orange/red color. What would be the safest route to take to eliminate them without killing all my acro's and clams. Removing to dip is not a option. Is there any fish that will eat them , like a six line wrasse

A six line will wipe them out

A six line will wipe them out

I would rather go with the six line , but it has been hard to find them around this year for some reason. I do have some flatworm x but dont really like doing the chemical thing. I really do appreciate all replies so now I know what I have and how to deal with it and can quit stressing.

Well fou d a six line and it's been in tank about a week now and doesn't seem like he is eating any of them. They are o ly on a large season greetings monti that I have noticed. Any other option you guys recommend.
