It is a flatworm, do you have a refugium, if so it may have come in on some macroalgae

Did you buy anything from a local store? One store in Manhattan has a flatworm infestation, I saw hundreds clinging to the front glass of a few of their tanks.

Not the one I saw them at. It is possible that they came in with the fish, but I do not know if they keep copper in their fish system...

Duke - umm maybe atleast 1 inch when it was streched out
Alfredo- yea copper im not sure they had the fish systems salt level really low if i did not misunderstood what she said they keep it around 1.13 1.14. They were alot better with the fish systems then the coral coral system just needed to be cleaned better but no kind of algae...so it was possible that it was on the fish then when the fish was in my tank the worm jump of the fish ?

I am not 100% convinced it is a flatworm though, I just looked at it again, could be some kind of small nudibranch.

It does look like a Acro Eating FlatWorm... (http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2007-09/mc/index.php) But I have seen some young nudi's that look very similar.

Get a few wrasses and they will be gone!!!! I got one chorise , one malanarus, and one mystery , and they have cleared me of everything down to the cleaner shrimp lol damn savages!!!!
we do keep copper in our systems, also we keep our fish systems salinity as low as possible to cut down on pests, had to have been from the chaeto
