I am looking for a treatment that will kill Hydra without killing Java moss or the infusoria that is in with the moss. I am preparing to add the Java moss to a tank for raising fry.
I have read a variety of possible treatments including several anti-parasite meds, chemicals (bleach, copper, ...), heat, and H2O2. I believe that almost any anti-parasite med and the chemicals will take a heavy toll on the infusoria but I am not familiar with the effects of the others.
My other tanks are either too new or have recently had diseases that I am concerned about introducing if I were to use them as a source for the infusoria.
