Something in this picture isn't right

I'm covering all bases, treating for redbugs and I added a 2nd Harlaquin. I'll be pulling some of the colonies and dipping them to see what comes off.

Does anyone know if the red bugs need to be blown off after the intercepter treatment or do they just fall off? I'm nervous that the treatment didn't work because after the dip there were so many left in the bucket.

I've never heard anyone saying they had to blow them off after treatment but I don't have any experience personally. If you still see them on your corals you might have to go with another treatment. From what I've read 3 treatments seems to take care of them for good.

You've probably already read this but here's a good link.
