Dear Pat,
There has been quite a discussion in the Forum on species of Chelidonura feeding on flatworms, especially Chelidonura varians. Have a look above your message for a picture of Chelidonura, and below your message for earlier discussion on the subject. Basically there doesn't seem to be any commercial supply for these animals.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
