I saw this on a facebook post and had to share.

In all my 13 years + of being in the hobby I have never seen anything like this. Gives me the shivers...



And for those without FB

Looks like a science experiment, or the start of a really bad aquatic horror movie….
 
I'm pretty sure the guy is a noobie

His first question was asking what kind of algae this was *sigh*

If you did nuke all those it would crash the tank. No telling what they would expel and just the dead worms would be enough to do it unless you sucked them all out and something tells me that would take a minute. ;Hilarious
 
The BRS facebook group is.....something to see from a distance. Bad advice, bad tanks, and 10$ gift cards. I'm not even mad, I'm impressed at this point. How the heck do you get SOOOOOOOO many???? When did you stand up and say "HEY THIS IS A PROBLEM". That's a tear down type level event.
 
Toxic.... full water change afer treatment nice, nice way to start over.
 
These flatworms …
They are terrible .
battled sucking them out every week
Added wrasses , green mandarin , blue velvet nudis , springeri damsels all which as supposed to make short work of them .
it’s taken over a year .

I was setting up to do my weekly routine and looked to notice they were all gone .

bad thing of them is my system is 230 gal
If I were to dose flatworm exit there would be no way of doing a 50% water change
 
Between this, tongue eating isopods and 4' worms I'm seriously beginning to question why I was drawn to this hobby... Oh ya... cute dwarf seahorses that I can't even get up here in Canada but I'm sure it would be no problem getting 4' worms, tongue eating isopods and flatworms in some random order. LOL. The stuff of nightmares!!
