Cooking Rock

[Slick Fork]

Hi there,

I've been cooking some rock in anticipation of my in-wall set-up being ready in a week or two (progress is mindbogglingly slow when you do it an hour here and an hour there) At least if my interpretation of cooking is correct (in a rubbermaid, with a cleanup crew flow and heat but no real light)

Anyways, my question goes like this, will cooking the rock like this take care of critters like red flatworms and aiptasia? I know it will help eliminate algae but I'm unsure as to the others. If not, is there a way to get rid of those guys without affecting any pods or other "desirable" hitch-hikers.
