Meh, it's just an aquarium. I've got years of enjoyment from it, it owes me nothing. Other than the 2 colonies, everything is doing well at this point, so now I get to tackle a new project and revitalize my enjoyment! I'll also be able to paint my living room now

Probably not. I don't really have time to document stuff, barely have time to run a tank. I would post a pic or two, but nothing like some of the build threads we have here!

"Just an aquarium" lol.
What are you going to be using as a dip before you move them to your new setup? Bayer?

I've been trying to find some Bayer. Does anyone know if it can be bought in Canada?
As in Aspirin? Does this work on flatworms?

Same company, different product I believe it's an insecticide.

As far as I know Bayer Advanced Complete Insect Killer isn't available in Canada. RPS is likely B-Cyfluthrin based as well, judging by the instructions. I'd be very surprised if it killed the eggs, seems too good to be true. Anyone have experience with this?

The only eggs I found were already hatched. I doubt it kills eggs though. IMO, the instructed dose isn't enough either, nor is the time long enough. At double strength, worms were still crawling around after 20 minutes. It took 30 for all movement to stop.

I found the eggs were invisible untill the coral air dried for a couple of minutes. IMO removing the eggs is the most important, and difficult part of the process.
