Hey guys just noticed these white spots growing on my frogspawn. Could someone please help me identify them and what to do for them?

spirorbid worms

Appreciate the help. Are they bad?

They may somewhat irritate corals, but nothing I would be worried about.
They do spread quite fast though, and some people dislike the way they look and decide to remove them.

Appreciate the info. Was just reading up on them. Heard horror stories about the EEFW. Was freaking out a bit!

All flatworms are unfortunately a nightmare to deal with, as a general rule - you'd want to dip all corals as well as to use a Turkey buster to blow all kinds of pest that might be present on the tissue but invisible to the naked eye and as a last step before introducing the coral to its new home, examine it closely under a magnifier glass to make sure no eggs are present, usually they are found at the base of the coral.

Great Info.
