I have uronema in my tank, or at least their DNA. The last fish died, so tearing down the tank and sterilizing is not a problem. But there are a few corals, a shrimp, snails and hermits. They can be housed while the DT is being cleaned, but what can I do to ensure there are no parasites on them?
I assume uronema doesn't actually infect any of these creatures, so it just needs to be removed from them - any ideas?
Hydrogen peroxide bath? Careful scrubbing?
Also, I'd like to give a shout out to Aquabiomics. I ordered the parasite DNA test from them, and while it came back clean, it also had over 90% of the sample from one worm, which apparently spawned right when I took the sample. They sent me another test, and the second one came back indicating Uronema. Not a result I wanted, but far better than having fish suddenly die and having no idea why. Thanks.
