Well...tryin to figure out what the brown thing is. It's not a flatworm. It survived the dip.
 
A slightly better closeup if anybody can ID the brown spotted critter. Looks like there's another one inside the mouth.

Sure it was alive?
It may or may not have survived the dip. It fell off pretty easy when I bumped it ( hopefully my 6 line found it) but there was another one deep inside the mouth that was already well eaten away. the frag just went through a dip with fairly rough flow and then a fresh water rinse and a good shake. When I bumped the bug the zoa closed up and a bunch of the orange mouth pieces of the zoas flew up into the water stream so I imagine he was still alive. I pulled it just to be sure. It's just not worth it and I have no desire to fight a bigger fight if it spreads onto the others. The two frags that were on either side have zoas that have not opened for 3 days so I've pulled one of them out and watching the others closely.
