Yes some do, but those that do don't always eat flatworms. Fish that may eat them are dragonets, some wrasses, and some gobies. They are not a good way though to erradicate them. Some nudibranchs are better predators of flatworms that fish, but they will need a constant supply of them to live. The way I get rid of flatworms is with good water quality, good flow, siphoning them off corals and sometimes dipping an effected coral in Lugol's and low salinity water and shaking it a lot. The last way is done only if the coral is completely covered in them and seems to get all of them off.
