I have worms

[Harpo]

To be more specific my tank has flat worms. I need some recommendations for a fish to eradicate them. I would prefer a wrasse but I have no sand. I would love to have a mystery wrasse if possible or perhaps a possum wrasse.

Thanks

David

if your tank is well established…
get a mandarin dragonet

I would love a pair of mandrins, I didn't realize they ate flat worms.

What flatworms?

If red flat worms a Target Mandarin works. It takes time and then one day you will say heck were they go.

My little Springeri damsel is making a dent in my ghost flatworms. I still suck out what I can since the damsel would rather eat the pods, but I've seen him eat a few of the flatworms.

They are reddish in color. I honestly dont know

6 line wrasse. Hunter killer.

Will need a positive id on the worms. Please post a pic or two under white light intensity

 

[Harpo]

Hopefully this is sufficient?

Coincidently my LFS has the same small round burnt orange things in his tank that he calls flat worms

 

[VintageReefer]

Can you get a pic with more white light?

6 lines don’t sleep in the sand and will eradicate them.

I've seen scooter dragonets eliminate them from a tank

 

[Harpo]

OK, I caught two of them and placed them under a magnifying glass. Hopefully this works

I added a melanurus to help thin my flatworm pupulation. It sleeps in a clay pot full of sand. This was in observation. When I brought it up tonthe display I just picked up the pot while it was sleeping and set it in the corner of the new tank which is bare bottom.

My tank has bristle worms. I added a big arrow crab but that dummy died from hunger. I had to hunt for it. Later on it refuses the bristle worm.
