They are flatworms. Are they white/clear or orange?
 
Some sort of acoel flatworm but it doesn't appear to be Convolutriloba sp. (colloquially known as red planaria although they are not planaria) which are often one of the most problematic species. If you only see them on the glass and if blowing off your corals with a turkey baster doesn't send some flying into the water column then I don't see a reason to sound the alarms yet.
 
Yea I only see them on the glass right now I bought some flatworm exit that I'm going to start using hopefully it takes care of everything before it gets worse. This is a new tank its been set up for a couple of months and so far it only has coral in it.
