Pickle010 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Will Salifert Flatworm Exit work well as a dip? I have a small holding tank and I'm seeing some flatworms on some of the coral - I have SFE in the house and was wondering if it would work well as a dip or if it's better to just treat the whole tank. I was planning on taking down the tank. Thanks. Link to comment
altolamprologus Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I've never used it as a dip but I assume it will work just the same. Iodine and bayer insect killer dips will flatworms too. Link to comment
JR! Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 seemed to work well for me. i mixed it pretty strong though Link to comment
FireCorals Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 CoralRX, if your serious about your coral, best product to use IMHO. Link to comment

I went ahead and set up a dip with the SFE - and it seems to have worked pretty well. I only used a half gallon of water and doubled the dosage... the flat worms fell right off. I've moved the corals over to a another tank and I'll watch them for while before I move them into the final tank they are going in. Link to comment
mrbigshot Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Bayer insect killer .5ml/2cups water. Instant death to just about any pest. Stong big ones like nudies just mix it stronger. $12 at home depot and it will last you for a century. I have coral rx but it takes a while to do it's thing and smooth skin acro's don't do well with it. Link to comment
