    This was a great video for people who have this issue. My friends struggled with them for years, because he never followed up with treatments repeatedly.

      repeat treatments are for sure important.

    I had this issue in the past. I used phosphate E to lower phosphate, the next day, all the flat worms were gone.

      I have heard of that treatment also. My phosphates are too low to try it though

    Do you ship any coral? Your SPS collection is very nice and a few pieces I'd be interested in.

      I do, but not until after the holidays. Shipping right now is terrible here!

    Actually bought some frags from you a while back and got some flat worms (you warned me about them so no fault of yours). Only saw a few in my nano so I did a few doses of exit but like 5-20 stuck around so I did a 2.5 dose and had 0 I’ll effects didn’t even siphon them out the last round just carbon. Stuff is definitely reed safe lol. Best of luck

      Thanks! Glad yours died as well as mine. I just did another treatment and did not see a single one die. I don’t see any in the tank either. Here is to hoping they are gone forever!

    Hey man, I have some but I’ve been actively removing them with a small siphon to the point where I have to look for one hard in the main display. My fear is the refugium, what do I do about the entire sump in general?

    Hi, do yourself a favour and get Elimi Phos Rapid from Tropic Marin. It´s made to reduce Po4 but the other positiv effect it has it that it kills the normal Flatworms in just a few dosis.

      I believe they are mostly gone, but I will give it a try if I see them come back. Not sure my phosphates can handle it though. They are only .03
