A cannister filter may present even more of a problem.
Part of the problem with Oomed and the like,is that after the flatworms have died they release toxins (likely why they stink so bad).
So now not only are you killing fauna along with the flatworms,you are releasing all that they contained back into you water column.
Crashes many have had afterward are likely due to this aswell im sure.
Cannister filtering them out would present the same problem,they would die within seconds of getting sucked into the filter,and you end up spewing all that stuff back in the tank.
Id still have to say just make life miserable for them,is the only trustworthy way to keep their numbers in check.
Hey Doug,went to reefland to check out the tank.....nice job! (wheres the emoticon for envy ?)
