It kills me that lately I found out that one of my tanks has leeches. Lucky its not really the killing kind. It mostly scavanges and such. So far its isolated and luckly I don't really intermix stuff which I think is why I think only one of my tank is affected.
Its my low tech experimental tank so I don't mind completely bombing this tank. I wanted to make it a new CRS tank so copper is out of the question.
I do have some rare and senstive plants in there for experiemental purposes so I have to becareful of what I use to dip. I need something that will kill everything. EVERYTHING except plants. Snails, snail eggs, LEECHES and its eggs. I just don't want to use bleach on these plants because they are senstive.
I was thinking about Potassium Permanganate but does anyone know if it kills all eggs?
Did anyone have to fight the battle against leeches and win?
