How do I control clove polyps on a coral colony?

got any pics?
 
I am seriously considering trying the fluke tabs. After reading more about the use of them, I am confused by other posts. What else will it kill? It looks like shrimp and maybe some softies. Starfish? Pods?

Correct me if I am wrong on the use of fluke tabs.
-Turn off the skimmer for 12 hours.
- Replace carbon.
- Do a water change. What percent though?
- What else?
 
I just bought some over the weekend. I have WAY more than I need.
 
I got my polyps identified as Jasmine polyps. I would like to control them with Fluke tabs. I dumb lucked out at finding a box at my LFS.
I know I have to remove my leathers, and shrimp. How long to I have to remove them from the system?
Will fluke tabs kill my gorgonians? Clam? Sea Cuke?
 
Length of time to reintroduce is dependant on how fast you can remove the medication.
If you let it settle on the rocks it may take quite a bit of time before you can reintroduce.
This stuff is a close cousin to fenbendazol
So treatment and cleanup should be the same.
 
Fluke tabs worked amazing for us. We waited until the Xenia was completely dead. Then did the water changes and everything else in our tank was fine

I was going to ask you how it went. Glad to hear.
 
SCORE! The exact same as the "old" fluke tabs. Get them quick.

That link has been up for a while. You can't actually buy them. I don't know why they have them up for sale. I do believe this product was banned in the US.
