What is on my Elegance?

They appear to be some sort of flatworm. Good or bad?

It's hard to tell from the pics but they appear to be flatworms. To get them off it - or at coral that can come out of the tank - a 10-15 second dip in temperature matched RO/DI water (no salt) will kill them dead. Just swish it and they'll fall off. To get rid of the ones that will still be in the tank I have a pair of blue star leopard wrasses that cleaned them out in a matter of days. As an added bonus, they are stunning look good fish
