I've heard of getting a chelidomura, nudibranch of some type. I have a clownfish in the tank... think he'd hurt the nudibranch? Also, where can I find one of these guys?

Well there are commercial products you can put in your tank....i have read very mixed results, sometimes these products nuke the whole tank and destroy just about everything......

Flatworm Exit and i have read of people using quinnine sulfate or quinnine something.....


then there is the other method of constant siphoning.....
