Incredibly effective

I have a 20 liter aquarium with densely planted shrimp that have planarians. I didn't want to take any medicine because of the mutton snails. I order two of these traps and place them on both frozen mysis shrimp and place the traps so the trap holes are flush with the substrate. The planarians moved toward the traps within minutes. The photo was taken less than an hour after the traps were in the tank. I'm happy with my purchase and glad I don't need any medication.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Works amazingly well

This works amazingly well against planarians, I set the trap before bed and it fills up with hundreds of planarians the next morning. If you have an infestation of planarians like in my aquarium, you will have to do this over and over again until you see a captive planarian. This can take weeks. The trick is to place the bait and leave some air as there is no water circulation in the trap and the bait will get dirty and suffocate the planaria, if you don't leave air in the trap the planaria…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Only available in white

Well made and effective

Planarian killing tools like NoPlanaria cost about $14 and result in the need to vacuum out dead planaria so this seemed like a better alternative. I used mosquito larvae in the trap and caught about 40 planarians in the first day and a half. I noticed that arranging the holes in the substrate produces more planarians than arranging the holes on the side. After the first day I wanted to wash the planaria out of the tube and noticed that the mosquito larvae smelled surprisingly foul. Therefore…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Something different

Good alternative to chemical planaria powder or none

This product worked very well. After putting it in my aquarium for 10 minutes I had quite a few planarians. I am 100% satisfied with this product and it works exactly as described. I bought this because I have a healthy colony of Sulawashi shrimp in my aquarium that took a while to establish and I don't want to invade water lines with an increase in flat shrimp deaths due to the chemicals used. I noticed a few planarians in my aquarium and wanted to get rid of them. I have a few snails that…

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Functionality
