Hey
Can anyone around help out with the I.D of this particular worm. I believe is a sort of flatworm, but We've been searching for it without results. Therefore We turn to the experts at RC. Thanks in advance |

A number of Rostanga sp. comes to mind. I would start from there but I am not aware any of them eating aiptasia.
Rostanga elandsia  Rostanga aureamala

I will throw out a couple possibilities that jumps to mind:
Berthellina citrina:  Doriopsilla carneola:  Again, I am not aware any of them preying on aiptasia.
