Loading ...You thought we were dead. Well, you WERE right. But some things you just can’t kill. We are the cockroaches of the reefing blogosphere. Something keeps up drawn to write and share our experiences with the rest of the reefing world.
Case in point this new thing called Levimasole. Its a known dewormer commonly used in freshwater applications, such as killing worms in Discuses and Loaches. It provides the same function as other on the market dewormers. Currently the most used dewormer for reefing applications, is the Interceptor. A dewormer for dogs, or a depester for your Acropra.
This is how we (as in the reefing community) managed to stumble upon Levimasole. Through trial aad error, and a lot of guts and luck, we may have reached a breakthrough in our battle with Acropora Eating Flat Worms (Amakusaplana acroporae). As it stands, there are reports of people using this type of swine dewormer to systemically remove all flatworm pests (including the red bugs) from their reef tanks. I will point you to a very important thread on Reef Central to give you all a glimpse into a possible CURE in battling the dreaded AEFW.
Look in here and please engage in conversations with the thread starter (and Bax who had originally tried Levi method on his 300 gallon tank) as we can all benefit from a communal voice.
I will be posting my adventures with Levi and its in-tank threatment for AEFW. So come back for a session in crying (of joy or sorrow). 
See you around reefnecks!

The dose is 28 mg/gal levamisole, per Ed Noga. I believe it is the active ingredient in Flatworm Exit.
