I'm not sure if you've seen this? - http://www.melevsreef.com/flatworms.html

Keep in mind that any medication that kill flatworms will also kill the pods. I don't see a way around that.

My buddy Jason had some Blue Life Flatworm Control.

Anyone else tried this product? He said it MAY not be as good as Salifert. I can't seem to find reviews on it.

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.

The fattest and heathest mandarins and spotted mandarins I've ever seen were in a tank that had a flatworm problem.

Default Cycled!

Well... the tank is cycled. I am sure it has been for some time now and my tests have confirmed this.


Ph - 8.3

NO2 - 0
NO3 - 0
NH4 - 0


Sooo..... It looks like I am going to add my Mandarin.

If they have one in the store tomorrow, it's coming home with me!

I have also decided that breeding is not in the cards right now. I am not going to set up another system to house fry anytime soon, so figured might as well get a nice one going in there.


I may also add a pipe fish. Not sure, but I may have too much flow for one... but we shall see.
