Total System Levasole Planaria Kill Recipe

I heard from my source that if you cannot find it sitting on a shelf somewhere, you may be waiting. He said the EPA has a "hold on it for now" and he doesn't know when it will become available.
 
Hey. I got 5 bottles coming my way from local farm stores. If you need one, please PM me. 1 of the 5 is spoken for. I am not charging anything extra, just for the shipping and cost of the bottle. I paid $19.00 for mine.
 
I've gotten two e-mails that people have responded to this thread, but I don't see their responses. Is anyone else having this issue??

I ignore those e-mails. They drive me nuts. . .

I tagged them as Spam. They go straight to my Spam Folder and I never even see them anymore.

In your options of your profile you can also shut off post reply notification or something like that.

I've not had false notice and found no reply, but I have had like 50 some messages in a day due to subscribing to a thread that was popular.

I am building a large multiple display system presently, when I complete that multiple stage build? I will be aquiring another "sample" of these and will be conducting another experiment to prove dormancy and tanks that appear clear actually still have them and can pass them along to others via swapping. I will be using the prior believed methods to prove their inefficiency and thereby prove that the Levasole is really the only way to go to eliminate these little buggers. I will build a series of test and control tanks with full identical filtration and livestock types and counts etc. Call it proving my work if you will.

I sent you a PM mr. james.
No luck for me either other than a few refunds from different companies.

Got it and responded. I have you covered.

I have 1 left of the 5 that are coming in. If anyone needs it, let me know. Again, I am not making $$ off of this, just trying to help my fellow reefers who may not be able to get this stuff.
 
just got mine in the mail!!!! Thanks for doing this for us.

Well just to ask the blunt question.

anybody that has done this if you have these items in your tank and they made it through the treatment please check them off for me as safe to do. or at least that yours made it through it :)


Tangs
crabs
cleaner shrimp

That is all im worried about I say that the clam and SPS made it. all my other fish are very hardy.

Thanks I know this was probley said already. I read this thread when it first came up and I didn't reread it tonight and I thought I would ask :)

my plan is to do this monday as I have the day off.

Thanks Roger
 
My sailfin tang did fine, my clean up crew appeared fine and I still have my emerald crab, I know I still have a peppermint shrimp that has been through one treatment (late addition that came with infested rock). Actually my sps look better now. Much more polyp extension. I really do believe that the flatworms must have been releasing toxins are part of their life cycle/ death during the months that the tank was infested.
 
Well jaded, your toxin theory can plausibly be part of the story.
Keep in mind that things crawling on an SPS naturally make it close too. And I think added to these would be the trace elements and good nutrient and such that would be available to your corals that these in the hundreds in an average infestation are absorbing.
The primary and the latter both would require one heck of a chemistry setup to test though. ;)
 
I have had all of the items you asked about go through multiple treatments without injury or death. I have seen the treatments stress turbo snails enough to drop from the glass and lay on the sand but they seem to almost all go back to normal after 15 minutes or so.
 
Maybe it works out to be the alcohol or bud light in the snail world? Because they sure do fall down like drunken sailors and get back up again. The starfish do this wriggle and flip over routine. I did have a few stars die from it, but most came right back swinging just like the snails.
 
Well I had an interesting experience when I just dosed. I did a water change and I just finished which is why I am posting here right now.
I got the leavamisole from Mr. James (thanks) and I did a 240 RO/DI solution with 1/2 tsp. of levasole.
My total volume I figure to be 35 gallons and I decided to dose about 55 ml worth of the solution. Seconds after I dumped it in I noticed the flatworms in select areas where moving a lot. They usually just sit there but they were all scurrying about all over my mushrooms and such. (seems like the place they like the best)
Now I was under the assumption that they were going to start floating all over like it did when I dosed flatworm exit but they never did. Didn't even really kill them from what I could see.
So I sucked up as many as I could see.
Now, maybe the medicine just didn't work? Or last time (3-4 weeks ago) I dosed Flatworm exit I really almost killed the population. When I dosed flatworm exit within 2 minutes my water column was just a blur. They were floating all over and I sucked out about 7 gallons worth of them. Didn't see any of that today.....
Since I made a 240ml solution and only used 60 of it, can I save it for next week when I try again?
Any ideas on whats goin on?
