im estimating i have anywhere from 100-300 and my tank is riddled with them......going ulns isnt an option for me ,nor is to stop feeding or broadcast feeding or killing my rock.


some people on reef central report some small success with peps, but over all seems the cure is to go ultra low nutrient system....fml lol

I had 2 or 3 different kinds before I treated my tank with fluke tabs last week. Killed them all.

Is there a particular kind of "fluke tab" or brand I guess? I wouldn't mind trying this out.
Any liquid versions that work? Will anything that kills flukes help rid these stupid things or is it just the tabs?
