It's here! Aefw killer in a DT

[Zef004]

Zeovit FlatwormStop has Acro Eating Flatworms (AEFW) squarely in its sights

It's about time someone come up with something that kills Aefw in side of a display tank. Keeping my fingers cross for all of us. That lost tanks to these lil buggers.

What you think. Will it work!

 

[hollback]

Very cool. I had to start over once due to AEFW. I really hope this product has been thoroughly tested.

cant wait to see actual field tests..

 

[JWorth]

thats good news

 

[Zef004]

From what I read on there websit. It's helps build up the immune In corals to rid FW. And dosing is 3months every day. ???????

 

[MattL22]

Wow!that's great even if it keeps them at bay that would be something! Wonder how much it will be? Any more info out there?

Wonder how much it will be? Any more info out there?

It's currently for sale on the Korallen-zucht website for 29.90 euros for 250ml, but who knows what it will cost when it makes it stateside. 500ml is 49.90 euros and 1000ml is 89.90 euros.

Knowing Zeovit products it certainly wont be cheap, but hey if it works its certainly worth the investment, whatever it may be...

 

[Zef004]

I seen someone on other forums say something like $175 shipped for 1000ml

 

[Dave3112]

30 euro is like 54 us dollars I believe. I wish it was out when I was over there a few months ago.

I beat AEFW and didn't scrap all my corals. It was a lot of work though and I don't think I'd be willing to do it again. If this stuff works it's worth it no matter the cost. I have much more invested into my corals.

Stole this from the Zeovit forums, post my Thomas Pohl, sounds like they didn't even test it against AEFW

"the product is not a medication. In by test we have no problem with any corals ore Fish but we have now the best corals we ever had. My Testing time now is more than 12 month to get the product ready and good for a shelf life of 12 month.
We have only a small Quantity now on stock of 150L, we wait the ingredients to work on a good stock, i think we can ship to every dealer in 3-4 weeks."

It looks like it's being promoted just as "flatworm" It seems to me if they had gained results specifically against AEFW, they would be shouting it from the highest mountain. I'd take a watch and see approach on this one.

 

[dnov99]

My guess is that it will cause the AEFW to "fall off" the acro but will not kill them. Possibly they cause the acro to release some type of slime that causes the FW to fall off the acro. Well, I guess time will tell how effective it is. I doubt Zeovit would release some snake-oil type of treatment.

 

[marinelife]

I would be interested in trying this product. I hope it works!!

 

[maharsreef]

That is very exciting news. As others have mentioned,
wish it was out a few months ago before I decided to start over.

 

[mjaustin22]

Saw this yesterday and got really excited. I hope this really works, I had to take one tank down due to AEFW and it was awful.

 

[arotbart]

I ordered some from them directly the other day. I was going back and forth with Thomas Phol via e mail trying to get him to explain the theory behind the product. Clearly it's not a medication. But, he stated it does increase the acro's immunity, and specifically the tissue. He indicated dosing every day using K balance in conjuction, and using a small powered on the corals after dosing in order to flush the worms into the water column where your fish will hopefully eat them. It sounded like a control system more than anything else. He indicted all natural ingredients

I will go over my emails to see what else he stated and post.

I will also document and post when I begin dosing. I have a few 'select' pieces that seem to be a magnet for these buggers no matter how often they get dipped!!

 

[neuwave]

Ooh I got excited when I saw this thread but sounds like its an inhibitor not a aefw killer. I just delt with these little buggers and so far so good. All infected acros are coming back but I had to use coral revive every few days and scrape all eggs off every two days. So far all acros are coming back. One in particular that barely had any color to it.


Anyway I'm curious to see your results. Good luck
