Use No-Planaria, you can kill all the planaria in 72 hours without harming your shrimp.

I provided many hiding place and so far it has been safe. But if ur shrimplets are newborns that are less than 2mm then better not. Cuz boraras may disturb the vulnerable shrimplets.

I saw it at y618 for less than 2orange "yusof ishak" if i am not wrong. Or u can ask green chapter in clementi to reserve a planaria trap for you. Currently no stocks from them.

Yup, i know whats planaria. But so far with my boraras in, i dont see any more planaria. Either that or my tank just so happen to be free of planaria after having boraras.

Fun fact: One thing i notice, hydra will catch the wriggly worms but not planaria. (im keeping a small cup of hydra, planaria and wriggly worm)

no boraras dont eat planaria , not even puffer fishes will

cos it will make their mouth stick together like glue , seen it once a puffer tried to eat and it made its mouth stick , after tat the puffer dont dare touch
