How long in QT?

[causeofhim]

If I get some corals from someone that recently had flatworms, but said thay are treated, how long sould I leave them in QT to be sure? Will I sii the flatworms on the glass? I've never had them and don't want to get them.

1-2 weeks would be best. You will see flatworms on the glass only if there are alot of them. How big is the QT? You could always add a small yellow coris wrasse or radiant wrasse, as they sometimes will eat them

20 gal QT. I don't really want to buy a fish just to be sure I don't have them. I'd rather make sure they are not there or if they are treat them.
Where should I look for them if not on the glass?

Look on the coral tissue for little flattened out brownish spots. Also look at the base .

Yeah you are going to have to go over the coral pretty good ( out of the water) to make sure there are none present. Usually tucked underneath the coral and on the polyp tissue as mentioned above

How difficult are they to see? I can't find any.
