Who has had AEFW and beat them?

[rastaangel]

I after beating the red bugs I discovered I have AEFW... Problems always snowball
Anyways who has had them and how did you beat them? Also does anyone know of a whole tank treatment?

There is no whole tank treatment. IF you can remove all acros, you can treat them, otherwise you can only hope to control them with various predators.

Flatworm Stop...in tank, reef safe and supposably a great prophylactique treatment for acropora flatworms:

I have not tried it but heard good review about it. It's just that it must be used for a few months to fully work, but I might use it as a preventive because it is said to enhance the color and health of SPS even if there are no flatworms.

Raging Reef in MOntreal have just got it in, so I am guessing other stores will soon get it as well.

I had AEFW and lost a lot of nice colonies. I ended up removing the worst and eventually won out by daily basting my acros and letting my Chromis eat the free floaters. Tried every type of wrasse possible with no luck.

I saw this the other day. Zeo has a new tank safe treatment out. Worth a shot.
