Will melanurus wrasses eat red flat worms

[Chuck gutshall]

I have a melanurus wrasse. I got him to eat red flat worm. And he really hasn't. I still see the same amount of flat worms as I did 3 weeks ago. He is always fat so I assume he is eating them

hi, firm yes..

 

[Reef Box]

Absolutely! Among other pests. I have had one in every single tank I've owned. I absolutely love them for any kind of pest control/eradication.

Could it just be so many flat worms its taking time

 

[reefluvrr]

Nothing is a guarantee, mine did not touch red flat worms.

Thats a bummer I was hoping to not have to add flatwormx into the tank. Ik it is reef safe but I always try for the most natural approach to reefing

Mine eats everything in sight!
EXCEPT flatworms!!!!

another melanurus fan here, mine ate red flatworms, but it did take a while before he eradicated them.
