Gill Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I was admiring the florescent pink spots on my new green tip frogspawn when I saw one move!!! I am almost certain they are flatworms. Do I need to freak out? They look really cool. I read that they are photosynthetic so they don't eat coral? I have a mystery wrasse should I just leave things alone?

Harold B Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I had them on a frogspawn also it was before I got my wrasse but I chose to use Coral RX which handled the "problem". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gill Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 Did you do a dip or did you does the tank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael7979 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Are they red or brown? Your wrasse will eat them but it will take time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gill Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 They are pink a really pretty pink definitely not brown. There is a lot of them on the frogspawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gill Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 For now they are only visible on the frogspawn. I got it last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael7979 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 U can take some tank water out in a bucket. Then take the coral and blow it off with a turkey baster. It won't get all of them but it can get alot off the coral. Sounds like you were sold an infected coral. Might want to look into coral dips and QTs.

Harold B Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I dipped the frogspawn for 10 min in a gallon ofcoral rx solution. Worked 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smann Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Is it the one you got from me?, I'll look at the other one in the sump and dip it, see what comes off. I just picked up some pieces from another tank and I'm dipping all of them in Coral RX. We talked about this last night, I have a little revive or some Rx if you need some, you need to dip!
