Dosed my tank tonight... what a load of work that is... LOTS of worms died, but I also siphoned for the past 3 days. 20G water change, Carbon, and sump is back up and going with a filter sock to catch the worms I missed with the siphon/WC.

We'll see how the tank looks for the next few days.

EDIT:
1 hour later, my PBT and Foxface are huddling under a rock... SPS has little to no polyp extension, zoas are half out, rest of the fish are swimming around as normal... kinda odd... but prepping another batch of WC water for tomorrow...

Hello everyone, just wanted to update on my tank status after my levamisole treatement. Its coming up to seven months and I have not had any flatworms return to my system.
I"M FLATWORM FREE FOR SEVEN MONTHS!!! For those who have this problem, I strongly suggest getting some levamisole. I've tried Flatworm Exit 5 times (probably spent close to $150-200 on Flatworm Exit in the past 6 years when I had up to 800g water volume a few years ago) and the flatworms always returned. I knew this stuff would kill the flatworms but I was skeptical about it on the long term. So far so good.

I do have extra if you are in a pinch and not wanting to get it shipped so PM me if you want some.

That's great Chin Lee! I'm going to start dipping all my incoming corals in Levamisole.

In the hunt for Levamisole, has anyone come across any liquid Levamisole? If so, please PM me.

Does anyone know if Levamisole will kill internal parasites as well? I sure does seem to work well for flatworms.
