What is Planaria?

  • Planaria are flatworms that can overpopulate aquariums, feed on shrimp, and disrupt the ecosystem.
  • These pests are hard to control and reproduce quickly, making effective treatment essential for maintaining a healthy tank.

Key Features of Genchem No Planaria:

  • Shrimp-Safe: Formulated to target planaria and hydra without affecting shrimp, snails, or other sensitive invertebrates.
  • Plant-Safe: Completely safe for live aquatic plants and will not damage delicate greenery.
  • Natural Formula: Made from betel nut extract, which is biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
  • Fast Action: Eliminates planaria within 72 hours with visible results.
  • Easy to Use: Comes in a convenient powder form for precise dosing.

How to Use:

  1. Preparation:
    • Remove activated carbon and UV sterilizers before treatment, as these can neutralize the active ingredients.
    • Conduct a 30% water change to ensure optimal conditions.
  2. Dosage:
    • Day 1: Add 1 scoop (supplied in the package) per 50 liters (13 gallons) of aquarium water.
    • Day 2: Add half the dose (1/2 scoop per 50 liters).
    • Day 3: Add another half dose if planaria persist.
  3. Post-Treatment:
    • After 72 hours, perform a 50% water change to remove dead planaria and residual treatment.
    • Resume filtration with activated carbon or similar media to clear the water of treatment residue.

Water Conditions for Effective Treatment:

  • Temperature: 72°F to 82°F (22°C to 28°C)
    Works effectively within a standard tropical aquarium temperature range.
  • pH Level: 6.0 to 7.8
    Safe for most freshwater aquariums with slightly acidic to neutral water.
  • Water Hardness: Soft to moderately hard water provides the best environment for treatment.

Tank Compatibility:

  • Ideal Tank Mates: Safe for all shrimp species, including Neocaridina and Caridina.
    • Also safe for snails such as Nerite and Mystery Snails.
  • Avoid: Not harmful to fish, but it’s recommended to observe fish behavior during treatment as sensitivities may vary.

Feeding Habit During Treatment:

  • Avoid feeding shrimp and other inhabitants for the first 24 hours of treatment to prevent uneaten food from reducing effectiveness.
  • Resume light feeding on Day 2 with small, easily consumable portions.

Care for Aquarium Inhabitants During Treatment:

  • Monitor shrimp and other sensitive tank mates for stress signs during treatment.
  • Remove visibly affected planaria manually with a net or siphon to reduce bioload.
  • Perform post-treatment maintenance to ensure the tank remains stable.

Tips for Preventing Planaria Recurrence:

  • Regular tank maintenance, including substrate cleaning and water changes, minimizes planaria eggs.
  • Avoid overfeeding, as leftover food often attracts planaria.
  • Quarantine new plants and decorations to prevent introducing pests into your tank.
