PLANARIA AND HYDRA
Planaria are small off-white, worm-like creatures with a spade-shaped head. They are relatively small and are typically caused by poor tank maintenance, dirty substrate and excess nutrients in the water from overfeeding. While harmless, they are unsightly and can cause swings in water parameters if left to proliferate. 

Hydra is typically caused by cross-contamination and poor maintenance. Similar to jellyfish, Hydra's tentacle-like extremities possess stinging cells that allow Hydra to immobilize, kill and feed on smaller aquatic life such as shrimplets and even small nano fish. A Hydra has no brain, no circulatory or respiratory system, nor even any musculature, yet it poses a real danger to small freshwater aquarium livestock.

Notes:

• Do not use this product in an aquarium tank that contains ornamental snail species.
• Treatment cycles last roughly 1 week. Do not change water or perform aquarium tank maintenance during this time.
• Once treatments are done, please ensure that any killed planaria and hydra are removed to prevent spikes in water parameters. A 50% water change should be done following treatments.
