Acopora Eating Flatworm Worms. Try to google & see whether match your situation or not. One of the nightmares for SPS keepers. Don't play with this one.

[braincoral]

*expletive* confirm its flatworm. .

My worst nightmare in my life..

Think it mark the end of my sps journey soon..

This pest destroy my sps v fast..

[netviper]

Go get melanarus n sixline wrasses. It helps to clear my prev aefw attack. For those aefw n eggs which u can find, frag out n throw away. Dipping helps but does place more stress to ya SPS.

Might be good to remove all to another tank in case of eggs still around. They might go for them once hatched.

One safest solution is to remove all the SPS & dip in coralRX or fauna marin ultra pest removal over a period of time. I don't recommend saliert flatworm exit as this method is very risky unless u know exactly what to do before dosing in.

It is a very tedious job to get rid of those worms and eggs..

I think just keep fishes will do ..

[brojj]

The final decision lies with u. FYI, the yellow wrasse does not do anything when i had an outbreak with these pests few months back. Lost a few precious gems (SPS) due to 'believe that the wrasse can settle everything'. I can only say 'good luck to u'.

[braincoral]

After weeks of battle with those terrible flat worms..

It seems that almost won the battle after dipping those

infected sps with solution...

Bad news were I lose almost 80 percent of my sps..

Even those that made it..basically had turn brown..

Now the tank is nothing but full of ugly stuff...

See liao also very pissed off

All my effort of keeping had gone down to the drain,,

This tragedy almost kill my passion for marine life..

Now I just leave it to fate..

[Firestarter]

Sad to hear that bro, but please come back stronger. Your 2ft sps tank is an inspiration.

[brojj]

Bro, i understand that. Come back stronger & restart again. Life itself is full of ups & down. Some cases even worse than losing SPS and having 'ugly' stuffs in the tank. This is juz a small upset compared to what we re facing in life. Perverse, turn those ugly 'ducklings' back into beautiful swams by continue taking good care of them & add new ones to replace those u have had lost. Believe in yourself, u can do it. Good luck.

Sorry for your loss. Old ones don't go, New ones can't come. Take it easy bro.

Just out of curiosity, when you say 80% of your SPS... does it include all types or just Acros?

[sunnymau]

Hai, I am too fighting this battle, already lost 2 colonies and many frags...

I only keeping acros.. so 80 percent casualty. ..

Sad to hear that u are in the same plight as me.. Hope u can overcome those bugs soon....

Got QT?

[braincoral]

Don't have extra space or tank to do QT..

I basically threw away all my rocks as I fear those flatworms

might hitch on the rocks...

Based on what I observed.. Frags can hardly survived while colony

have a higher chance of surviving/after dipping into solution etc...

Can see some bite marks left by those flatworms too..

[spgohjc]

No QT? Sorry then you can say bye bye to the 20%.

No need to throw rocks. Sell your good acros.

[braincoral]

After many weeks of battle with those pests

finally..no more traces of eggs were found..

No more signs of STN

Better extending of polyps...

Just hope that everything go smoothly now

[brojj]

Bro sunny, sad to hear your side had this pest too. Your SPS are beauties. Hope u will overcome the flatworms & win this battle soon.

[brojj]
