What is this stuff?

I would go the wrasse route. And as far as mardarins go I've heard it's the dot mandarins that sometimes eat flatworms.

I don't think I know what a dot mandarin is... what's that? I am familiar with the Green and the Spotted. Charlie, don't think I know where to find Kevin on here to drop him a pm. What's his handle/username?

Nick, his board name is kevinpo.

dot = spot in my book, lol.

Could be referring to a Target Mandarin.

The sixline wrasse's belly is constantly filled but the flatworms remain abundant. Not sure what's going on. I think I am going to have to take more aggressive measures - the Salifert f.e. route.

A Six-line will eat Flatworms, and help control the population. However, if you're already at or near plague proportion, no fish will be able to keep up. Suck out as many as you can, to help the 6 line along. Use a filter sock to catch them, siphon all you can find, return the NON Flatworm water back to the tank.

Good point, Michael. I'll try syphoning out as much as I can and go from there. I was about to dump some Flatworm Exit in.
