600 gallon tank with 900 gallons of flatwork exit

dodgy sounding calculations there I think...

He has 600 gallons of water and he put the amount of flatworm exit in for 900 gallons. I just watched my feeding and siphoned out what I could, they eventually just all died off from lack of food. Also some say you need to double it to work. I never had much luck with it either. You can try a nudibranch that eat these I think it's the blue velvet nudi.

its alot of work, but changing your sand bed and rinsing off your rock will get rid of them. thats how i got rid of mine. i had them all over my tank.

I used double the amount recomended and left it in 24 hours. Then added carbon and tried to vacuum out all that I could see. did a 20% water change, have not seen any since. Some people say a 6 line wrasse works, did not for me.
