Freaking out!

[elev8]

There are more, maybe a handful that i can see in various spots on the glass

Picture in post #16 is better and I would say, partly because it's the most common flatworm, is that you have rust brown flatworms. I'd suggest getting rid of them with either a fish that eats them....wrasse.....or chemically with something like Flatworm Exit. They multiple quickly and can produce a toxin.

I’m so afraid of using flatworm exit, I have heard of too many disaster stories.

The fish is the biological way, any particular wrasse?
Sixline?

I am also reading these aren’t so bad too.
So much conflicting information when I ran a search for them.
If I were to nuke the tank with salifert, could I remove as many corals as possible, dip (regular coral dips) them in another container and keep them there while I hit the tank with exit?

 

[fishguy242]

what size tank? not an exit fan myself,natural is way to go

 

[elev8]

Very small, fluval evo.
Probably 10 or 11 gallons after all the sand, rock and corals

 

[elev8]

No fish either, just rocks, corals and inverts.

 

[fishguy242]

sixline,or sm yellow coris,but good tight top..

 

[elev8]

Top is secure and I also have the little magnet plug for the feed hole.

Which fish would attack these more aggressively, and I understand that is subjective, but wondering if the coris or six would be more effective at eradicating these flatworms?

 

[fishguy242]

my choice would be 6 line.

Thank you very much for your help!!!

My lfs actually had a tiny 6 in stock the other day when I went in for some frozen food.
I am going to call them and see if they still have it.

Appreciate your time and patience in dealing with these issues.
