So i see a few of these spiders on my new digi colony and decided to dip. Lo and behold! At least there were about 20 that came off of it. Then decided to dip another couple of frags and the same happened.
I am thinking, I can't be the only one who has this problem. Symptoms are almost the same as any other pests. No polyp extension, colours are off and RTN from the base of the acros.
Armed with hardly any info at all on how to deal with this, I tried interceptor. A had a few left from the last RB bout a few months ago. I decided i am trying a higher dose to see what happens (There was another post by someone else who tried interceptor with no success).
I dosed 3/4 of the tablet instead of only half.
This morning when I woke up there was a couple hundred just floating around the tank! Looks like the interceptor did it. Not sure what it does to the eggs. I guess I will see shortly. Almost immediately the polyp extension came back on all the acros.
Since I don't have a qt I won't be adding any corals for a while. QT is the next investment!
