Re: Planaria Problems

["Bailin Shaw" <bailin_shaw@hotmail.com>]

The only problem with planaria is their egg eating habit.  I believe it's 
been mentioned before, but they will eat the eggs of apistos.  If you're 
trying to spawn the fish, you may want to eliminate the problem with fluke 
tabs like was mentioned previously.  Those work quite nicely.
