There are RCS and endler guppies with Horadandia atukorali.

Rajiv, planaris are usually present in a tank, when theres abundance of food, and uneaten food is not removed from the tank.

i would suggest reduction in the quantity of food that u are adding to the tank and in a few days time u should be able to get rid of em

on another note, no issues if planaria is present in the tank

They don't look good in planted tanks!

Try to use febendazole to treat them.

But yes the dead decomposing bodies of the planaria will foul your water quality.

starve ur guppies and other small fish
they themselves will eat em up

How about trying a pair of badis? They might feed on them
