Yes. Spotted Mandarins do eat FWs. I used one to clear my original 20G and they do a bang up job.

However, I plan to add Blue Mandarins, and I am not finding anything that states they too will devour them.

Anyone else seen Blues eat flatworms.

Wes let me know what your results are please.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

I can confirm too through experience that Salifert's flatworm exit won't harm your pods. Depending on the size of the FW population though have a pile of carbon and a large water change ready to go.
