acro eating redbugs

[reefinmike]

recently i noticed a slight fading of one of my green acro colonies. i only have 3 very small colonies so it will be easy to treat. what is the best way to treat. if needed i can setup a seperate tank for them. whats the best way to completely eradicate them from the tank??

Search for interceptor and do an in-tank treatment.

Is iodine dipping effective?

Nope, Iodine doesnt seem to phase them(Im highly allergic on the other hand...ahhhhh!!!!). Im 2 weeks in on red bugs and I quarantiened the corals and nuked them in a 1/4 tablet of interceptor to 5 gal water dip for 20 minutes. It seems to have worked b/c I havent been able to spot one since...but again, it's only been 2 weeks. All corals have awesome PE .
