householdofpayne Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 So I have a bunch of “bugs” on the glass of our pico jar. I first believed them to be flat worms, but am starting to think I have a ton of copapods, and maybe a few flat worms as well? What do you all think? What I believe to be flat worms is circled. They all really obstruct the viewing field. What’s ya’lls recommendation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxkenny90xx Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Are they red flatworms? There are a few wrasses that may eat them. I could be wrong but I think the dragonet would as well. Then there's flatworm exit, I've heard good things about it but you want to siphon out as many as you can first so the mass die off doesn't crash your tank.

The rad reefer Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I would just try those two fish. One at a time though bc it’s a small tank, until u find a fish that solves the problem Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabbyCrabs Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I used pig dewormer successfully although I removed all snails, crabs, and fish. Took about 2 months of dosing. Been over a year flatworm free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
