Torch Flatworms and a Tiny Snail

Instigate · Oct 14, 2017

I got a torch frag along with some zoas and a candy cane. Dipped them all in revive. Now about a week later I noticed a flatworm on the torch frag so I gave it a dip. Three flatworms came off. Then a few hours later I see another. How often can a coral be dipped? I only have revive on hand but can get something else.
I also got 4 more frags yesterday. A hammer, a chalice and a couple favias.

I also noticed a tiny, tiny snail on the front glass yesterday. I took some video then killed it. I assume it's likely some kind of pest snail.

The snail was barely visible with the naked eye. The video was shot with a 28mm nikkor AI lens on a APS-C Sony a6300 with an extension tube. When I took it out it just looked like a black spec on my finger.

Thanks, I'll be getting some of that.

Anyone know anything about the snail?

Stomatella: Good guy. They eat film algae. https://www.lionfishlair.com/hitchhikers-guide/

Are you sure? The foot to tentacle ratio doesn't seem the same nor does the shell. Is it a different genus than what is pictured there but still a Stomatella?
