Will C.habrosus eat flatworms?

[T]

Ok so my shrimp/micro crab/nerite tank is infested with flatworms. They eat shrimplets and pester adults as they seem to be sticky. I have tried many things including garlic (which seems to make them go into hiding for short periods of time), weak doses of lemaisole and cutting right back on feeding and only giving veg foods they dont eat. But nothing has worked.

Today I bought 6 C.habrosus to add to another tank but have decided to keep them in the shrimp tank for a few weeks so I can keep an eye on them and feed them up. Though when I kept C.pygmaus before they ate almost all of my shrimplets I'm at a loss anyway as few survive the flatworms.

So basically what im asking is will they help out in my struggle to control the flatworms or just add to the problem?

Thanks

No Corydoras spp will eat the flat worms including C. habrosus.
You need to feed more carefully so the flat worms don't under go a population explosion.
I would try flubendazole to kill what you have but also begin frequent vacuuming of the substrate in conjunction with more careful feeding. These two actions will do much to diminish the presence of the flatworms. Flubendazole will not kill your shrimp at normally recommended doses.

Yeh I thought that might be the case. Well like I said I had cut the feeding right down to maybe a few squished peas a week and vacced the sand as thouroughly as I could but as soon as I would put even a single small shrimp pellet in they would apprear out of the woodwork and swarm all over it. I do have flubendazole but it says in the directioins that if kills snails and other larger ivertebrates and even if it didnt kill the shimp it will surely kill the large amount of MTS an cause a bigger problem.
