[snowdude]

i found a few ameba looking things crawling on my tank this morning. after turning the lights on they disappeared within a few mins. What are they? I cant attach pic.. file is to big. It looks like an ameba that we learned about in biology.. if anyone can help me, i can gladly mail it to you.

thanks!!!!

similar to that, i guess they all differ.. i noticed on mine that there is a dot in the center of it.... these are ok?

i think some are ok and some are coral eaters hope someone corrects me if i am wrong :? i would just watch unless you start to see lots.

IMO, all flat worms have the potential to be detrimental, simply from unchecked multiplication. They will eventually chocke the animals you want to keep.
