Pirate's Reef recently posted this to his instagram account where he is using Fenbendazole flakes in his tanks and it seems to have eliminated AEFW. He says he has no softies....I am curious what effect this treatment would have on BCP

I just stumbled across this thread, and sadly I let a small patch grow...

Is it possible, or has anyone tried it, to spot treat affected rocks in a separate container/bucket/tank? I have a few rocks that I can pull and treat on their own if this will work.
I spot eradicate in the tank with Kalk slurry via a syringe. It works for a few weeks then the BCP come back.

I still haven't seen a single clove polyp since my treatment about a year ago.

The mistake everyone seems to make that results in multiple treatments is that the guidelines suggest removing the treatment way too soon. Leave it in 7-8 days.

I would be its also a matter of poor dissolving of the product.
