I had a fish with anchor worm and it died. Long story short...How long can the eggs survive without a host? Its been a week and theres no fish in the tank but im afraid adding fish will start the AW cycle again.

So how long can the eggs and babies of AW survive without a host??
 
I finally got rid of them. It took over a month of no fish in tank and believe it or not a few of the population of the worms lived. I used a couple separate treatments of Proform-LA and finally got rid of the dasdardly things. Good luck.
