You will need to allow the tank to go fallow except for inverts for approx. 6 weeks. This will remove any possible host for the parasite and prevent it from continuing on in its lifecycle.

Warmer water will help decrease the life span. I haven't read by how much though. Time and patience has worked for me in the past.
