corals slowly dying had become a norm in my tank for over a year. Recently I saw some red flatworms so bombed it with flatworm exit. After a few hours I did a 15% water change with fresh carbon and polyfilter. Some of the corals were mad and a couple of snails didn’t make it. So I did another small water change few days later.

after a few days I dosed KZ flatworm stop in an attempt to strength the corals with a slime coatings so in case there are survivors or eggs that at least the corals can fight them off.

since then, some of my corals to include my trachy went down hill. Lost half colony of toxic green hammer, a small torch and a few more euphyllias are not doing well now. So I stopped the flatworm exit.

I looked closely and found what appeared to be bite marks on the euphyllias stems, are those flatworm bite marks?

I dipped it with coral rx and found 1 flatworm.

Now should I back on dosing flatworm stop or what should I do?
