jedimasterben Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 The thingies sticking out are vermetid snails it looks like, they're pretty harmless, but if you see the coral they're next to closing up, just break it off. How long has the clown been doing that? Is it breathing heavy? Link to comment

bencollinz Posted November 14, 2013 Author Share Posted November 14, 2013 I think you should treat the tank with Salifert's Flatworm Exit once a week for a couple of weeks. This will kill adults and the eggs that hatch. can anyone help me fulfill this? advice? Link to comment
