if they haven't yet infested your entire tank you can smother them with epoxy. Just spread a thin layer of epoxy over the area of rock that they are on. Remove the epoxy in a few days and they will be done. If you see anymore in other areas, repeat the process.

What are these fluke tabs and where can I start looking for them? What are the negative effects it can have on tank, corals and fish?

Too late now. Once they start spreading you're screwed.

Or you can be like me and just embrace the damn things.....and look at the bright side, at least they don't sting the corals they decide to grow on

Cant seem to find any fluke tabs. If anyone has two of them can you please sell them to me. I've looked up the ingrediants and have found a product with the same ingrediants and hoping it might possibly be the same thing.

Here it is:
