I've got lots of frags from Wayne, check every one under a microscope and never found anything. I know his tank is fine, and so, the last frag he gave me, when I was busy, did not get checked. Until last night. Oh, look, flatworms on the frag. #$%%
It has been in my system a few days. It got tossed last night. I checked all the other frags and nothing. But the chances that one let loose and went for a swim in the tank are pretty good. Nothing I can do about it now, but that 2 minutes of being lazy, just once, may have just cost me my coral collection.

People, DO NOT add frags to your tank without dipping. You WILL get something bad, and in the case of AEFW, not treatable in tank.
Brad, I hope your tank is gonna be ok. This whole thing has me very concerned. I do not want to share this with anyone. As you said all it takes is one... I wish I had set up the other tank already. The irony of it all is that the second tank is to be my insurance policy...
