Ok friends, need some advice. I think I'm in the middle of my first tank crash4 months into the hobby. I've been fighting red planaria for 2 months or so. I've done 2 or 3 doses of FlatwormRX with no issues, except each time the planaria would be back a couple weeks later. I would run carbon shortly after dosing, etc. This past week I decided to be diligent, so 3 doses separated by 3 days. After my second dose, things started being unhappy. My LPS started staying retracted and saw some mucus and mesenterial filaments. My platygyra started doing... something. I did nothing different and the population of flatworms was tiny. I let the carbon do its thing. The next day, things are still not happy. I did a 20% water change and replaced the carbon. The next day, I dosed Prime then did a second 20% water change because things were still not happy. I checked all my params - 77deg, 8.2dkh, 1.027sg, .02 ammonia, 7.8pH (normal for my tank).
Today it's looking slightly worse. I'm going to do a 100-ish% water change and change the carbon, and I can't think of anything else to do. Suggestions?
