Default Flatworm pest

I have noticed brown flatworms eating the hair algae in my tank. There is not much hair algae, but the little hair algae I have is full of these little brown flatworms. What is a good remedy?
Thanks,
Mark

Let them eat the hair algae first. Then get rid of them.

I found that a leopard wrasse made a meal out of my flatworms in my old tank. Freshwater dips are also good.

I would have you know I swerve to miss all those worms, and if the older lady who was driving the Explorer is reading this, I am very very sorry.
