OK so i used flatworm exit and all my flatworms are dead. also i lost every pod in my tank, as well as all of my small brittle stars and stomatellos. my hermits and snails seem fine but all of my corals closed right up. no tissue loss but i havent seen my corals closed up like this since I first started. should i be worried? I did a 40g water change after treatment and i have a large bag of carbon in my filter bag. Also it kind of stinks around my tank now is that from the death of the flatworms or what?
Thanks again for the input!!

IME I have used the 6 line they are hit and miss. along with leopard wrasses too. my yellow was a go getter from the start wipping them out all the time. scooter blennies are a hit and a miss. but flat worm exit will wipe out hte flat worms. However, remember that once the flat worms are dead they will have the toxicans in their bodies that can kill other fish, I beleive that is what killed the chromis in doug tank they were eating what was floating around so BEWARE.

That is really odd, I dosed my tank twice in the last two months, my polyps didnt care at all? My GSP sucked back in for about 15 min but it was back out right away? Nothing else in the tank seemed to mind.

How much did you dose?

I dosed 1 drop per gallon of total water volume. so that would be 125 drops with my refugiums,sump and reactors included. My buddy dosed his 33g tank with 33 drops and some of his worms lived but his corals were unaffected, in my tank, the corals were affected but the flatworms are gone completely. also today more polyps are out but still no long extension from my milleporas.
