yeah flatworms will eat some of your stuff. You can use flatworm treatment or if these are the only ones you see maybe you can just syphon them out

They are pretty cool looking flatworms. Do you ever see them moving?

Those flatworms were most likely commensal with your mushrooms, and probably wouldn't have hurt anything.

Those are nice shots. I noticed you have a long tentacle anemone. How is he holding up? I just had to return mine after 1.5 years, he just kept growing and growing.

YEA! That's what mine did too haha. It stayed put for the longest time and my two percs made it their home. Then it went and started trying to take over my Blue Ribbon Eel's home and I couldn't allow that. Now my clowns are homeless, they don't seem to want to host with my rose bubble tip. oh well.
