I saw this very big flatworm in my tank. By doing some research it looks like a polycad flatworm. It was moving so fast going under a rock before I could get my fish net. I have been noticing some of my snails had empty shells. It kind of looks like a big snail without a shell. How do I get rid of this thing? Thank goodness I didn't put a clam in there yet!
 
Catch it at night. They rip very easily. Any piece left behind grows another flatworm. Dr. G's coral dip which contains the same ingredient as Interceptor kills these giant flatworms as well.

These flatworms will eat all your snails and kill clams.

How do I catch it?
 
I saw where people where adding Dr G to their display. Will that kill the polycad too?
Thats what i did after I caught mine. They're nocturnal by nature. You can make a bottle trap with a piece of shrimp to lure it out.
