planaria

I did a 3 day blackout to finish off the dino and kept it under blue light only for weeks. They were bought a month before the blackout. Photos were taken yesterday. The problem is as follows: slipped tissue from the skeleton in canes, in euphilia seems to be too. Can this be due to changes in...

How do I approach this without crashing my tank? My tank is about 2 months old and i Just added in a couple snails today. Noticed a boom in copepod populations when I came back from vacation two days ago. Also have an elephant slug, sexy shrimp, and azure Damsel. Should I be worried? Help!

Hello all, I have a 125 gallon LPS dominant barebottom reef tank. Recently I've started noticing some red flatworms (planaria) on my live rock and want to do something to combat them. They haven't been noticably affecting my corals, but I'm sure it would be better if I get rid of them. I've been...

Hi all, I added uncured live rock to my tank a few weeks ago (unwise) I'm overdue for a water change & now see all these worms on the glass. When I zoom in on them they do have bristles...What do y'all think these are? Thank you PS The only live stock in the tank is a turbo snail & 2 of...

I've been battling what I thought is Cyano for over a year. Did various treaments, like ChemiClean (Many months ago...Once) , then I stopped using Amino's which would fuel this red Cyano like growth. I even added more pumps for flow to eliminate dead spots. OLD PHOTO FROM a few months ago...

Hi Everyone, So after some long painful searches, I can find little to no data regarding the dipping of clean up crew members, specifically Trochus snails. For those who have encountered an unwanted flatworm invasion, I think it is useful to understand that the shells of our CUC can harbor any...

Hey all - Just received some chaeto and saw it had some red planaria flatworms in it. Unfortunately I had to buy from somewhere other than AlgaeBarn and ReefCleaners, as they were sold out every time I checked. I haven't put the chaeto in my sump yet, but wanted to get some input before I make...

Hello, This evening I found tons of these little white guys running around the glass, and I have no idea what they are?? Should I be worried about them attaching to the fish? What are they? Sorry for the questions but also how should I treat it? I just have clowns and crabs in this 20gal so if...

The Odd creature ever ;Doctor ;Doctor ;Muted ;Doctor ;Doctor Found this one on corals I bought from LFS. 1st I saw it on one Gorgonian Sea FAN and it was really strange, because the string coming out of there was over 30cm long. The issue I can have I don't DIP that particular Gorgonian...

Hello Reefers, I wanted to share my experience with a product to remove Flatworm in your tank. I documented a little bit of the reaction on different corals also. If there anyone who uses this product before let me know if it worked for you.

Hi Guys/Gals, I got a bit of a problem with red planaria flatworms in my PICO (25l) A mate suggested using NEMARID DEWORMER. I sucked up a few flatworm dropped them into 1l of water & added 2drops of nemarid. It seemed to kill about 80-90% of the worms. Im just not sure how reef safe it is...

about 1-2months ago, I saw a flatworm on my mushroom. Then two on the glass. I also had aiptasia a back then and got a copper band butterfly since they're one of my dream fish I was looking into anyway. Since then, I haven't seen any in my DT. Do CBB eat flatworms? HOWEVER, i see a small army of...
