That is really odd, I dosed my tank twice in the last two months, my polyps didnt care at all? My GSP sucked back in for about 15 min but it was back out right away? Nothing else in the tank seemed to mind.

How much did you dose?

I dosed 1 drop per gallon of total water volume. so that would be 125 drops with my refugiums,sump and reactors included. My buddy dosed his 33g tank with 33 drops and some of his worms lived but his corals were unaffected, in my tank, the corals were affected but the flatworms are gone completely. also today more polyps are out but still no long extension from my milleporas.

Default zeolites affected?

I've got much more extension today, still my milleporas aren't looking so good. My water doesn't stink anymore. Now i guess i just have to wait for colors to come back to my sps.
Do you think that my zeolites may have been affected from the treatment? I have continued with the dosing schedule hoping to bring back the color my corals used to have.

Default All Good

Everything is back to normal. Color and extension are coming right back now. My corals are still a little brown, but the zeovit system is doing its job.
Thanks for all the input!!

I had flatworms for the second time in 10 years. I was really very lazy this time. The first time I just kept sucking and blowing....they disappeared relatively quickly.

Low and behold, I finally got down to doing that again....

Flatworms gone. Amen.

Thats what I did when I saw a few all gone now.
I sure would not want to kill all my pods.
I heard that they will come and go. You just need to control them before they really get out of hand.
