you had them? them what extactly? Because if you had no SPS then you probably did not have any acropora eating flatworms, so there is no way to say that it worked great.

IN any case, I would not put that in a reef tank for sure. It contain malachite green and quinine...not very compatible with a reef. It also contain copper from what I read.

I had tiny red flat worms. Not sure of the specifics.

Wrong ones for this thread. We're talking about acropora eating flatworms, little mottled brownish planaria that live exclusively on acropora. Impossible to see, lay eggs around base of coral. Bad critters.

My bad, thought all flatworms could be treated the same. It looks like those acropora flatworms are very resilient to meds. Have to be careful of those guys.

So your tellin me I didnt have to bust all my monti's and undata off the rocks... :twised:

Well, I did post the answer, you shoulda waited :)

Well I guess ill have lotsa cali tort, tyree undata, and ORA supernatural monti frags after I beat them...

Well after having to do 30g of water changes and use 2 bottles of coral rx dip to do all my SPS I have decided to try alternative measures as I couldnt possibly do that every week for 2 months, even tho theres no clear cut method.
Tonight I tried flatworm exit. Dosed the recomeened dosage for my tank and nothing happened... So I doubled it, nothing happened... Then dumped the whole thing in... And nothing happened.
Did a 25g change and ran lotsa carbon after a 4 hr treatment.
Flatworm exit does not work even @ +3x dose
Gonna try some other things

Flat worm exit is for the harmless red Planaria flatworms,has no effect on AEFW.Coral rx,revive..etc. kill AEFW but no dip kills the eggs,have to be manually removed.Sorry Cory you have to go through this,it has caused some people to shut down there tanks.

This will be the last straw for me to shut down.... Ive had enough
First I had a tank break, then wiped out by ick, then wiped out by velvet, then I had a heater give out and kill off everything, then my landlord used ant spray by my tank which killed all my coral and caused a spike which resulted in massive hair algea and most other wiped out so I stared over again, then I stocked again and had a longnose butterfly wipeout 80% of my SPS, restocked then I developed bacterial problems, then red bugs, then AEFW and last night a power surge casue my lead heater to give out and my tank dropped to 74* and nothing is happy!!!!
Think thats enough to throw in the towel? All has happened in less then 2 yrs BTW
