What are ways of removing flat worms? Besides Flat Worm Exit?
Any kinda traps theyll go to or something. Seems like a lot chill on the glass, but I can also see a lot on the rocks and what not...
Also how fast do they breed... seems like 1000 a day...
And any SNAILS that eat them or some other kind Invert?
Or a fish... Itd have to be a small goby or something. Tank is really small im having this problem in...
Thanks in advance

And what does these feed off of?
Copepods right? if so I have a million of them in this tank since there isnt any fish. Literally theres a ton in the tank!
Also how does these kill coral?

Some flatworms can cover the coral so much they can deprive them of light and oxygen.
A velvet nudi eats flatworms..... C. varians.

use a small arrow crab to dwindle them down then adjust the overfeeding that is made obvious by flatworm/bristlewom overpopulation..
After the arrow is done, trade it in lol... they only get dangerous once they run out of worms.

Flatworm exit didn't work for me very well at all. I ended up getting mandarin to eat the copepods, the only problem is now I'm spending $20/week buying pods to keep it fed until I get my fuge setup, but my flatworms are gone.
