Microbe-Lift Herbtana....Kills flatworms?

89Foxbody · 07/22/2011, 11:58 AM

I just called my LFS to ask if he had any FE in stock since Foster + Smith is out til 9/08 and he told me that he's had a lot of people telling him that they tried Herbtana from Microbe-Lift and have seen results with their flatworm infestation...I guess I can draw a connection because Herbtana supposedly kills external parasites...but color me skeptical. He says it doesn't work as quickly but still gets the job done...

Does anyone have any input on this theory? I'd be interested to try it out but I'm wary of adding any kind of junk to my tank. I definitely need to get the flatworms under control however cause they are taking over my zoas and crawling all in my sand and on my glass. I'm suctioning out zillions of them every week but they just re-emerge in a couple of days.
