Thanks, I've added a further picture and video, it's the best I could manage at present.They look like it but the pic is not clear enough to be sure.
Cheers, I've had a read and ordered some 1 percent solution off Amazon. It's only a small tank so will pull all my lps and treat them.This is a start if this is what you have:
Thread 'Ivermectin for The Removal of Spionids' https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/ivermectin-for-the-removal-of-spionids.850016/
There are many threads. I will be doing my doses this week myself.
Thanks, yes it seems to mirror what I have. Will be treating with a Ivermectin dip.
Would you say it's worth treating all my corals, do these worms damage softies such as zoas, mushrooms, gsp for example? Noticed some on my Montis now as well.....This is a start if this is what you have:

Not sure on the level of damage or if they'll go through other softies, but I have seen them popping up through GSP a couple of times - for example:gsp for example?
Thanks, think I'll hold off the softies and just do Lps and Montis for now.Not sure on the level of damage or if they'll go through other softies, but I have seen them popping up through GSP a couple of times - for example:
Colonial hydroids which will continue to multiply as long as they have a food source or spinoids but same on food source
Thanks, would increasing flow near the coral deprive them of the ability to harvest food sources? I'm going to dip them all in Ivermectin as well to try and reduce numbers as much as I can.Colonial hydroids which will continue to multiply as long as they have a food source or spinoids but same on food source
Thanks, I only have a few montis and no other Sps, it's a predator tank so conditions are not really suited to Sps, (medium flow and high No3). Will dip all sps and lps and go from there.They bore in rock and hard coral.
I wouldn't worry about softies. Yes, they may park next to them and it may look terrible but no harm done directly.
SPS is a different story. They could bore so much and stunt growth if not kill the colony.
I have them all over and I'm going to be swapping to a bigger tank this week so it makes sense to dip all my rock now.
I'll probably lose most of my diversity and need to repopulate my system.
I'm am guessing these strings with a white head around the rock work look more like Colonial hydroids?Colonial hydroids which will continue to multiply as long as they have a food source or spinoids but same on food source
Correct.I'm am guessing these strings with a white head around the rock work look more like Colonial hydroids?
I too thinking hydroidsI'm am guessing these strings with a white head around the rock work look more like Colonial hydroids?
Thanks, as it's all over the rock work I'm guessing a Fenbendazole treatment and removing the cabbage coral and GSP to a QT? Zoas and mushrooms should be ok.I too thinking hydroids
They can be placed in a container of tank water and scraped off avoiding use of chemicals which may have impact on other coralThanks, as it's all over the rock work I'm guessing a Fenbendazole treatment and removing the cabbage coral and GSP to a QT? Zoas and mushrooms should be ok.
Thanks, as for the one's on the large single piece aquascape, I can't really pull the whole of it out the tank. Is it best to leave and focus on the corals?They can be placed in a container of tank water and scraped off avoiding use of chemicals which may have impact on other coral
