Greetings all,

I have a 13.5 gallon tank which has recently got infected with flatworms.

I currently just have two clowns in the tank. Do I have any stocking options for any fish or invertebrate which would eat the flatworms?

I’ve heard some reports of Springer’s damsels eating them, anyone have any luck with them?

The flatworms are brown and tiny, the same color as a food pellet. I think planaria

I want to stray away from using any products unless that is my last resort.

Thanks and happy reefing
 
I don't think I would add another fish into that tank, especially not a damsel. I've used flatworm exit a few times with good results and never had an issue. Another option would be to siphon them out
