I've been snacking on beef patty cookies since Friday. :grimacing-face: We made about 5lbs too many hamburgers at work Friday, I went home with like 15 burgers! Skipped the buns, because I recently decided I need to drop 20lbs and get back to 205-215, there's 2 or 3 left:oops:

The clam was, but I've had it for months in the 15g cube.

I have removed these devil flatworms before, 3 of them, before my last transfer to this tank. I was hoping I had gotten all of them, but apparently not.

What is a harsh dip or treatment I can do to each rock before I add them to my new tank? I've heard the flatworms die in various dips but the eggs survive, but I also haven't had any issues with them eating euphillia yet either, my torch and frog are unaffected.

Only a few rocks have corals growing on them so I should be able to do most dips or treatments.
KCL isn’t harsh but will kill worms if done at a higher strength and left a bit longer ….throw some iodine in there to really knock em down

How quick acting is a product like flatworm exit at killing the worms? I'm trying to think of a solution/product I can add to a bucket so I can dip each rock prior to transfer.

Any good ideers? Cronies unite!
We are talking about bristles right?

They really can’t live with iodine….its how I go about mass murder

I'm suspecting a polyclad flatworm. I've had them previously so I must have missed one. They are a huge, 2-3" long nasty snail and clam eating death worm.

This was one I later caught, this was about 2 years ago.

I think between like a double strength KCL dip mad dark with iodine it would kill them….

Poor Elmo!! That was quite the scream of pain at the end there
Were going to slowly inject more and more amphetamines until you flatline....

Would it be might have possibly been called Flatliners…..no that cannot be right……..

it's them, they're at work wondering where I am...
