Re: Planaria
No, well mine don't.
If I recall, the only fish that eat them are paradise fish (Macropodus sp. - I think that's right without checking) and possibly bettas. I popped a siamese fighter in a tank infested with planaria last week and he seems to be 'pecking' at the glass a lot. The best cure I have found is flubenol, but it isn't available anymore.
Although planaria are harmless to fish, they will devour cory eggs.
Good luck,
Mark.
