Whatever happened to greenex. I had them many years ago and just greenexed the tank. Did not lose anything including coral, shrimp or fish but I didn't have any SPS at the time. Worked great, but turns your clear silicone a green color. Do they even sell it anymore?

you had them? them what extactly? Because if you had no SPS then you probably did not have any acropora eating flatworms, so there is no way to say that it worked great.

IN any case, I would not put that in a reef tank for sure. It contain malachite green and quinine...not very compatible with a reef. It also contain copper from what I read.

I had tiny red flat worms. Not sure of the specifics.

Wrong ones for this thread. We're talking about acropora eating flatworms, little mottled brownish planaria that live exclusively on acropora. Impossible to see, lay eggs around base of coral. Bad critters.

My bad, thought all flatworms could be treated the same. It looks like those acropora flatworms are very resilient to meds. Have to be careful of those guys.
