Flatworms cute? Ugh, no way. They are neat, I'll give you that but unwanted if all your pricey zoos are disappearing (whatever's eating them doesn't save the red ones for last ). Granted I'm not sure if its the flatworms that were getting the job done or the many bristle worms I've been fishing out of the tank since the treatment.

FYI, at this dosage:
- all brittle stars die first, and lower dosages as well.
- stomatella snails slow down (even slower than they already are) I
don't know if they die (yet) though.
- flatworms mostly die. I haven't seen one yet but talk to me in 2 weeks.
- bristleworms come out of their hidey holes and are slow to respond to
my plucking them off the rocks with tweezers. I'd feed them to my other
fish in the main tank but they're probly full of toxic junk so into the toilet
they go. I secretly think they've been munching on my zoos as well as I
don't feed the tank that much and any excess nutrients are taken up by
the 27 different types of algae that grows in there
- ricordeas get really pinchyfaced and their mouths get a bit gapey. After
the treatment its back to business though
