Flatworm

[Neo Jeo]

I been having issues with my corals dieing. I lost a few frog spawns and torches. It looked like an infection.

Today I dipped them again to find multiple flatworms. Clear with a center dot and some
Light light brown.

I dip all my corals but some must of passed.

What kind is this? Is this my problem of corals dieing? I got Flatworm RX blue USA. I just dosed it . I have skimmer and carbon running. I’m making new water now to do a change.

Lol k.

This has been a stressful few weeks for my tank. So the flat worms I have are bad ones? They are the reason my corals have been dieing slowly? I’m trying to find that flat worm online but it’s hard to find solid info.

Thank you, I read both. Good thing is mine don’t release toxins after death.

When should I do a water change? I just treated my tank and I’m running carbon.

I have a flasher Wrasse now. Would it be best to get a 6line Wrasse as well?

Sixline may not play well with your flasher ... Yellow "coris" or other small Halichoeres, might be a good choice, as well. My target mandarin snacks on flatworms when she finds 'em . . .

I picked up a yellow coris yesterday night and he seems to be fine with all. I also got a mandarin he’s just swimming in the back ground

The two new fish are doing great. I did a second treatment of flatworm RX.

I can’t see the flat worms nor did I in the last only when I did that dip. How many times should I do the treatment?

The only weird thing was my nem split on the second treatment. He has not done that befor

Nems will split when water parameters change. The idea is that if theres two after the split, there is technically double the chance of one of them living.

Do some tests and make sure you arent experiencing any spikes from the corals you lost
