I had the exact same problem....bought a 6-Line Wrasse for $10 and he began eating them within 10 seconds of being in the tank....he never ate any food off of me for 4 months but decimated nearly every little critter in my tank including every last flatworm.

I have your exact problem. I regularly siphon out hundreds of the little bastards...but to no avail. fWE has worked in the past to really cut them down...but never beat them. Bought a yellow coris...he looked at them and did nothing. Not sure what to do these days.
