Default Flatworm exit dosage?

Whats the deal with this stuff? I'm at 8x dosage on the package and its like nothin doin in the tank. Granted a few are floating around but some are just cruising on the sandbed like its business as usual. I'm coming up on 30 minutes.

What kind of dosages are other people using with success?

PS. this is my 7g nano tank, not the big one

i used aprox 8x dosage to get rid of zoa eating nudi's, but it also killed my tuxedo urchin. i would definite not use any more. I've still got mixed emotions about using the stuff.

I don't have anything else in the system except for hitchhikers, flatworms, zoas ricordeas and a single fish. Not too worried about what croaks (except for the fish) as the zoos have been on their way out one by one. I had assumed it was the flatworms.

Dosage on the package killed them all in my tank, and quick, too quick. Did you check the expiry date?

yes, the expiry is 03/2009. Right from the first time I used the product I had to use way more than the dosage on the package. I'm crossing my fingers that it was successful this time. I don't see any in there but I didn't last time either and tey cam back in droves

I hate them! They're evil! But in a cute way.
