Hi
I have wittnessed Brown slugs on some of my soft corals including hammer, frogspawn, Ricordia, and mushrooms and some pieces have died, Are these worms/slugs parasitic and killing my corals.

If anyone has any information please let me know!!

thanks
James

Looks like a ton of flatworms, they can overwhelm a coral and kill it. You can use flatworm exit to kill them bbut they will expell a lot of poison into your tank so I would syphon as many out as possible just use a small diameter hose toget them out.

flat worm exit does wonders ........ do it soon though don't let them get out of control.
