I think the snails are pouch snails.......they totally multiply like crazy. Planaria......yes, it is gross. They are flatworms and there are lots of them. From my online searches I have found a product called "Flatworm Exit", which I think I will use. I also have read about a product called "PraziPro" which would be good for any potential parasites that could have arisen. I am not sure though what would be the best for the snails. I have a lot of hornwort and duckweed, which I am reading cannot tolerate bleach, otherwise that is what I would use. The closest solution I can come up with is an Alum bath, though nothing seems to guarantee full eradication of snails and snail eggs.
