    Anyone know if this will kill vermetid snails:

    CORAL RX CORALRX REEF DIP CORAL PROPAGATION DIP 8 OZ - eBay (item 270471272967 end time Mar-15-10 15:20:21 PDT)

    Usage


    Coral Rx can be used in treating many types of live corals; soft, LPS and SPS. Coral Rx should be used in treating corals that have parasites or other bacterial infections. Additionally, it should be used as a prophylactic treatment before bringing live coral into your aquarium.

    Coral Rx is effective in removing the following parasites:
    Acropora Eating Flatworms (AEFW)
    Montipora Eating Nudibranchs
    Bristleworms
    Zoanthid Eating Spiders
    Red Flatworms

    Also aids in the treatment of:
    Filamentous Hair Algae
    Rapid Tissue Necrosis (RTN)
    Slow Tissue Necrosis (STN)
    Bacterial Infections & More

    Coral Rx should not be used on fish, shrimp, crabs, snails, clams or other invertebrates. Coral Rx may not be effective on Acropora Red Bugs.

    I dont know if it will kill vermeitid snails, but the main guy I buy coral from swears by this stuff. He makes it sound like it will solve all your problems and kill all your hitchhikers, so Im intregued. It seems to have worked well for him too, so I think I will pick some up the next time I go to buy from him.

    Cool... thanks norg. It says do not use on fish, snails ect. So I may just try dipping all my corals in it before my next tank is built to try and kill these annoying vermetids.

    Paul Law I suspect, right?


    Great guy, and a member in my local reef club.

    The stuff sounds like it does practically everything but not guaranteed with red bugs. I would think since it kills snails and other inverts that vermetids would die from using it.

    I emailed the folks at CoralRX...
    I asked .. Will CoralRX kill vermetid snails?

    this was the response:

    I believe Coralrx will effective them due to the reactions with all snails, but I have never tested it on them.
