Flatworms only seem to really take over in tanks that have a nutrient abundance. Cut out the nutrients, and the population should diminish to a size that you can deal with. Which means a whole lotta siphoning them out!

^ Ya they can do a good cleanup! If I were you, I'd remove every single rock out of the tank, suck up all the worms I can see in the tank. Then use a turkey baster to blow the worms off the rock (in a different container), then put the rocks back in. Should nearly decimate the population, at which time you could possibly add a Six Line Wrasse or try to get your hands on some Salifert Flatworm Exit.
