I was qt some corals, with a coral RX in to QT and then a coral RX out into my DT after 3 weeks in QT for observation. I have one Zoo in the QT to put into my DT as I haven't had the time. I am looking at the glass and I see all these very very very ting worm like things. I have done some searches and they don't like a typical flatworm to me, but I could be wrong. They are way to small to take a picture of them, so with a high power magnifier I have drawn what I see. I mean these things are so small if you didn't use a magnifying glass you would not know what they are. Any help would be cool, and how could these things get past a coral RX dip into the QT, and is it possible they got into my DT after another coral RX dip?

The hand drawn is the best of my ability. To me they are shaped like a carrot, sort of?

It's really hard to say what it might be just by looking at your drawing. There's something like 20 - 30 thousand species of worms out there...

Try taking a look at this site. Maybe there's a photo that resembles what you saw.

Kind of looks like a carrot but other than that I don't know.
