Dear Fellow Reef Enthusiasts,

I am writing to you because you are the forerunners of coral reef husbandry and I value your responses first.
Currently, I am attempting to map the distribution of all nuisance flatworms across the United States utilizing a quick and easy on-line survey. This data will become part of a master's thesis project that is devoted specifically to this topic at Hofstra Universtiy on Long Island, New York.

My plan is to collect data from Aquariums, Aquaculturists, and Hobbyists alike, to understand how widespread flatworms are in the trade. Once the survey data is collected, I will create a distribution map and I will be able to ascertain which chemicals are most commonly used to treat them.

Please pass this e-mail with the survey link to any friends, contacts, blogs, or websites that you feel could contribute.
All data is welcome. I am very excited to learn how many people this research involves, and I will post the results asap.

Thanks so much,

-Drew Lynford
