I got them Red Bugs

[Scorpius]

Your post has me a bit confused.

You mentioned losing snails and hermits due to left over Interceptor. You dosed both Dr G's and Interceptor or only Dr G's?

I have what looks like white bugs and thinking of using Dr G's if i don't find Interceptor or Sentinel locally.

Dr. G's main ingredient is Interceptor. You dose Dr. G's coral dip into your main display. It will kill/harm invertebrates.

Hello, great to see you got rid of the red bugs.
Where did you buy Dr.G´s treatment?
regards

Dr. Foster and Smith.com

Interceptor is a brand name.

I see that you were referring to Milbemycin oxime which is the drug found in both Dr G's and Interceptor.

Thanks

Anyone know if this will kill planaria flatworms?

My question is with regard to the micro fauna of the tank. I have a tank that has been up for three years and currently have a mild infestation of red bugs (corals still growing and look good). I'm nervous about dosing interceptor because I don't want to destroy the balance of all the micro fauna.... Anyone have any issues weeks or months after dosing?

As with any whole tank treatment you are using the nuclear option imo. Using this though is the lesser of the nuclear options. lol
