Nature Boys Basta Planaria

Nature Boys Basta Planaria is a gentle yet effective solution for removing planaria and hydra from shrimp and community aquariums. Formulated with shrimp safety in mind, it targets unwanted flatworms without harming your shrimp, snails, fish, or biological filtration when used as directed. This makes it an excellent choice for keepers who want to restore balance in their tank without resorting to harsh chemical treatments.

Planaria and hydra often appear in aquariums with heavy feeding, leftover foods, or high organic waste. Nature Boys Basta Planaria helps eliminate these pests quickly, preventing them from preying on shrimplets or irritating delicate species. The treatment dissolves easily and works throughout the water column, breaking down the pests’ protective layers and stopping reproduction cycles. Because it’s non-toxic to your tank’s beneficial bacteria, your biological system remains stable and uninterrupted.

Clear instructions and predictable dosing make it simple for both new and experienced aquarists to use. Once the treatment period is complete, a standard water change helps remove any dissolved residues, leaving your tank clean, safe, and pest-free. Basta Planaria is suitable for regular aquariums, breeding tanks, shrimp colonies, and planted setups.

How to Use:

• Remove activated carbon or chemical filtration before dosing.

• Add the recommended amount according to tank volume.

• Allow the treatment to work for the full recommended duration; most pests disappear within a few days.

• Perform a water change afterward and reinsert any removed filter media.

• Repeat if necessary for heavy infestations.
