what are the flatworms on? if they're just on a coral or two, you may want to consider a freshwater dip as opposed to chemical treatment. in my experience, the flatworms completely dissolve in about 15 seconds! regardless, i think you'd have to kill off a pretty severe infestation in order to contribute to your ammonia spike...not a lot of body mass there. although you may not want to chance that.
