I wasn't saying that you could kill them with nutrient control. I just think that tanks in nutrient overload are much more susceptible to flatworm plagues. I do however think that you can manually control the population if you're willing to rip the tank apart completely. Most people want an easy solution though.

I eventually got fed up years ago and used greenex and it worked and I don't recall losing any livestock.
