I know you didn't say crappy but it sure did comes across that way . We went thru all this junk in PMs months back and we ended on peacful terms now we are back at it . I have counted 7 threads so far where you have agrued with me and came into the threads just to troll to get a rise out of people including myself by totally trying to discredit every experience I shared .

I see you have 35 years with FW and 3 with Reefs, so your an experienced tank keeper/hobbiest...
So why would you come out and say something so insulting to someone that has put a lot of time and effort into his tank and is clearly more then capable of sustaing an amazing tank, with awesome corals in it?
If you are such the expert and are capable of judging what a good tank is or is not and you have taken it apon yourself to judge clkwrk's tank then put your money were your mouth is and post pics of your tank and let all of us judge your tank?
So some on, want to make statments like that then step up to the plate and prove how you are so able to judge what an "awesome" tank is and isn't by postinng your tank.
I know you never said your tank is better in this thread but to say something like that you sould really back it up with what you have.
If you can't even do that then you should really stop commenting on others tanks; it's only fair.

Well I'm not sure whats going on but I know of a great way to get rid of all parasites, dose ur tank with too much sugar, it kills everything 
In all seriousness (spelling) I think it is better to try to keep something under control rather than completely destroy it. Even with dips and QT it is inevitable that u will get some sort of parasite. It would be like expecting to never get sick, its gonna happen. For instance aptaisia can be a real pain however they are fairly easy to control with peppermints or banded copper butterflies. I guess my question is if anyone knows of a fish/invert that preys on red bugs?
BTW I'm not going to get into how started what however I think EVERYONE should respect the wishes of the thread's author and stick to the topic, and Chris ur tank is what inspired me to attempt sps corals

ok.. your right... sps are just fine with parasitic red bugs munching on them.. is that what you would like me to say? as far as my experience.. i bred tropheus and angels commercially... Im not going to debate any longer... My tank looks soooooooo much better after treatment..... and Menards still rocks.. i hope my little 1 yr old reef looks that good in 2 years ... ill " lay off" now
