Tonight I saw what looked like a decaying snail. I tried to pull the shell out and the "dead snail" clung to the rock in what looked like a big gooey mess. Tried to take out the goo with tweezers, it slipped away, and saw a huge roughly 4 inch flatworm disappear into the rocks.
I've IDed it as a polyclad flatworm. And explains why I could never keep snails or clams in this tank long term.
I found it in a tiny hole in the rock, couldn't get it out so I threw the rock in my old batch of kalkwasser...
Anywho, is this the case where if I have one I likely have more? I also read that if a small piece of it comes off it turns into another flatworm... which I am skeptical of. Any truth to the matter?
