Noticed about a week ago that I had a few flatworms in the 75 gallon and decided to nip the problem in the but before It got out of controle. I've never used FE before and im going through the process of dosing it right now. I used about a cap full which is whats recommended for a 75 gallon tank, then about 25 minutes later another half dose since there were a few that didn't really seem effected. I threw in some fresh carbon and blew out all the rocks as well as have a bucket of water on standby just in case things go south. I've noticed that my snails have gotten way way more active (cruising around the tank) and the mini bristle stars are also moving around way way way more then they usually do. I was wondering if anyone has had problems with FE killing clean up crews or not. I'm not gonna loose sleep over the bristle stars really but I like my snails and I'd hate to see em die off prematurely

I used it a couple of times I never had an issue with my livestock. I was sure to do a water change and carbon right after.
