Hey everyone, I need some advice! How do I get rid of a planaria outbreak in my shrimp planted tank?
 I've seen a few solutions around the web but in Canada we're restricted in some of the popular methods.

What works for you and is still obtainable?
Somehow I can't keep java moss alive.

In the past , I've used " No Planaria" and was available at Critter Jungle ( Carling & Kirkwood) , not sure if it's still available.

An update, Critter Jungle did have the planaria product but its called SL Aqua Z-1. It took roughly 2 weeks or so to clear out the Planaria outbreak yay!
