I always through pennies into my tank, sounds odd but the copper will kill any invertabrae. Not a good idea if you have snails or crabs/lobster. Just clean the penny like you would any tank decoration and throw them in. I had some smaller wormlike creatures in my tank before I did this, and I haven't seen them since. It is a small price to pay to get rid of them.
