red bugs

[cubman20]

has any one used sentinel it has lufenuron in it. just seeing if any one used it if it was ok

no you have to use intercepter to kill red bugs

 

[Gilby]

Yes its the milbemycin oxime that is in interceptor that kills them.

I am just worried about the lufenuron I know mibemycin oxime is ok. If it is ok i will go for it 40 sps on the line

Did you get red bugs from LFS or local reefer?

 

[cubman20]

lfs

 

[cubman20]

It's my fault Gus should have dipped.

 

[Gilby]

I would not put the lufenuron in your tank or dip corals in it. I don't think there has been any research on that medicine and don't know what effect it would have on redbugs or your tank inhabitants. Just stick with interceptor. It's proven to work.

 

[BADGUS]

Agreed,red bugs aren't as bad as aefw,If you have smaller colonies,then they do affect the corals alot more.Go with interceptor.

i used this and am very satisfied with the results! easy, cheap, QUICK! i dipped for 5 minutes. interceptor tends to be hard to get ahold of
