AEFW - best treatment?

Hi,

I've been battling AEFW for about a year now, mostly just blowing them off the corals. I thought I had gotten rid of them because I couldn't see any more damage, but lately they have come back and its worse than before...

What is the best way to get rid of these pests?
thanks

Does AEFW stand for Acro eating flat worms? If so try a wrasse or flatworm exit.

Hi AI3,

I am conducting my master's research on AEFW at Hofstra University in Long Island NY. Currently I am observing the eggs, however I am in need of some more adults. Would you mind shipping a infected frag or two to New York? I have a dedicated 75g setup to keep both the acros and worms alive in my house.

Thanks Very Much,
-Drew
