Well it was bound to happen , I have an outbreak of flatworms...and unfortunately I also have a very large leopard wrasse (so no 6 band to the rescue for me)...I have done some dipping but it really is barely making a dent

I know a blue velvet may be a solution but don't think anyone in the Houston area has them.

Not sure what else to do ...

What kind of flat worms are we talking? There's a huge difference between a Ghost Flatworm and an AEFW.

Look kinda like ghost worms but I'm not sure. Just keep dipping, and most importantly, look for eggs around the base to scrape off.
