Hello everyone,

About two days I’ve found some eggs on one of my torches, after googling it, was confirmed that they were euphyllia eating flatworms, since I’ve found 2 previously and had to syphon them out. Anyways, I’ve ordered flatworm exit from salifert but so far I could only find one post saying it’s safe-ish for Stomatella snails, I have a few in the tank, some young, some adults and don’t wanna risk losing them, they do a great work and it’s so fun to watch them doing their thing. Just wondering if anyone has experienced a similar situation.
 
I’ve used it several times over the years. My snails fell off the glass, but survived. I never had major issues.

Remember it doesn’t kill the eggs, so you will have to dose 3 or 4 times to wipe them all out.

Yes I already scrapped all the eggs I could find off the torch itself but I’m sure there’s more somewhere else, I’ll be dosing for a month every week probably, thanks!
