Help with Salifert flatworm exit

[SVTour]

Used it today according to the instructions...and it seems to have worked on all the flatworms. Fish and coral are also okay...

However, I'm running into an issue with all my brittle stars in the tank...including a large one that I've had for years. All of them came out of the rocks and appear rather lethargic. I'm running carbon and did a 15% water change...

Anybody else run into this while using? Think they will be okay?

Here's a pic of my large brittle...normally he sits under the rocks...

Joey, I had two brittle stars when I used flat worm exit. I lost one of them. He did the same thing. Came out of the rocks like yours. I was bummed about that loss, but I did get rid of the flat worms for good!

Thanks...I just got more carbon to run.

I wish they would have put this in as a side effect...I would have at least moved the large one over to my QT first.

good luck, just a bit of bad news my flat worms came back in about 3 months. I guess it missed a couple of them. Good news my brittle star survived.
