Hello. I have a 120 gallon spsd tank (there is a thread if you want to see it) and its about 6 mo old. I'm running triton method, but I have been feeding a little heavy lately and as a result have had slightly accelerated diatoms on the sand and a need to clean the glass daily.

I ran NOPOX for a week just to help keep things in check. Everything looks great, but now i have an outbreak of flatworms. - the kind with a round head and a forked tail and they are cream colored. I'm assuming they are thriving on the bacteria the NOPOX grew. I've noticed this exact same thing in a separate reef that I dosed at the same time in the same way.

Has anyone else had this or a similar occurrence happen? I'm not worried at all. I just want to see if this has happened to other people and what they have to say. I'm sure it will resolve eventually.
