Sorry to hear :-(
Dumping chemicals into your tank that's meant to kill off organisms is always a risky proposition. You just have to stay on top of it, observe closely and be prepared for the fallout (with water changes, carbon, etc), as you've discovered. In my experience it is not very helpful to ask where I got flatworms from, but rather how did I let them get into my tank? Two very different questions :-) At any rate, it sounds to me like you're on top of the situation and have it under control. Good recovery!

The thing that I hate about fwe is you never know how many fw are in the rocks so when you treat the tank there could be thousands dead in the rocks . Have seen quit a few of people have the same issue after using fwe . Ammonia spike could be from dead flatworms that never got siphoned out . I never used fwe I just siphoned them out everyday and then I think the banded pipefish I got ended up finishing them off . I quit siphoning them out but they all dissapeared and the pipes are the only fish in the tank oh and a candy basslett to so maybe he ate them . Good luck with recovery .

I contemplated getting a predator but they were only visible in the sump... Nohing visible in the main tank so my fish were obviously preying on them. The sump has 3 chambers where they were safe....
Hence the FWE.....

Well, after a few days of letting things settle now that we are back on track...
I have lost: -Paired Darwin clowns -2x large heads of a Spaghetti Torch -2x Scarlet Cleaner shrimp -Forest Fire Digi -Ultimate Rastas zoos -Toxic orange zoas -Blue Acro I saved from near death: -My neon Elephant ear mushroom - just a clipping that Im trying to get to foot itself.... PITA but its alive!!! -Hammer Coral - no biggie, they are common. -Sunny Ds -and a few others. Water params are stable now & I'm gonna be rearranging my corals back into their respective tanks. After this I do have a few frags cut - ironic.... If you've got any of the things that I lost as little frags to help rebuild, let me know.
