Flatworms????

[jgoal55]

Hi All,

Are these things flatworms? If yes, I have a lot of them. I've been reading about flatworm exit and about siphoning out the ones that you can get too in addition to using FWE but was wondering what other thoughts you guys had on getting rid of these things.....right now there are no fish in the tank since they are QTed (ick) but I do have a six line that supposedly eats these things.

Thanks.

Those are flatworms, just like mine. I am tired of siphoning them up, so I was thinking of using FWE also.

From what I have read, follow the suggestions of Salifert and people who have done it. Run a canister filter with charcoal to rid the tank of the toxic flatworm juice that they produce when they die.

Yep Flat worms, They are hard to get rid of depending on what kind you have so don't let them get out of hand.
