New CUC- How to De-Pest them

[seth the wine guy]

I'm grabbing several hundred snails today and was wondering what methods people use to make sure they are pest free?
I QT my fish and dip my corals.
What about CUC's?

Rob did a pretty good job of weeding out anything that looked suspect before he bagged them.

Ive never really thought about this topic though...Im not sure why soemone hasnt chimed in already.

Myself and Jaycen B did a test a few days ago. He was holding a few corals and snails of mine in his nano tank and they had some flat worms on them, so we took a snail with some flatworms and put it in a 4 oz container. We added 2 ml of melafix and the flatworms went crazy then died. I added the same ammout to the bags I put the corals in and drove home. By the time I got home all the flat works were dead. Just figured I would share my little piece of info.

Thanks,
That's the kind of stuff I'm afraid of.

I contracted flatworms from snails in the past... Not sure what the best treatment would be.
