Interceptor for Red Bugs

I got bit by the bug. I am pretty sure I have red bugs on some of my acros now. My strawberry shortcake started to look like crap recently so I started starring very closely at all my acros and I have definitely notices some little bugs on couple of them. I have also noticed lack of PE on some of them. Would they irritate my digi as well or only acros? I am pretty damn sure I know who I got them from.

Does any one have a pill of Interceptor???? Looks like I can buy a whole pack online but its 50$. Or any one willing to split a pack?

If someone is selling coral on any site, including this one, that is infested with red bugs or any other parasites for that matter, I think you should let the community know, so that we can avoid having to deal with it. It doesn't make you a rat when you are saving someone's tank. Just my two cents...

Its hard to point fingers specially when u dont know for sure it sucks to be wrongfully blamed believe me i know people were blaming me for aefw when it was somebody else on here giving em to people and because i had the smaller tank and less money i was automatically blamed then 6 people got aefw and i only sold to three but the other richer guy sold to all six . So i agree dont say name on here because theres no way to prove for a fact unless u dip the coral and see it right after buying just my two cents people work hard for good reputations to have em blemished by a maybe is not cool just dip your stuff get freah cut frags from the tips of the corals and qt if your that worried . The good news is red bugs isnt even that bad and easily fixed

Joe, I respectfully disagree with you. If you are certain that a person gave you some parasite, then you should call them out on it for the sake of other members. A community should watch out for each other, there are too many unscrupulous people out there who could give a crap about other people's tanks.

I can't be 100% sure who I got them from but the last acros I put in my tank were all from him. And it was about 10 acros. I dip everything but don't always check the dip for bugs. Now I will. If I was certain I will post it here. He is a very nice guy and won't bash him on this thread even though he's not a CR member. He has an amazing tank, but what can you do. Alway dip your stuff before sticking it in. LOL. Should have learned that a long time ago. hahahahh.

Read the first line of your argument . If u r certain u just said it your self how many r certain most time it takes awhile to even notice u have some . If u read mine it says its hard to be certain . If u have 100 percent knowledge of somebody giving u it then fine blast em other wise it like sleeping with 100 women catching the fuking clap and blaming one person just use common sense is all im saying .

+1 corals actually like the interceptor pill i think, chicken chicken lol

And i didn't pull out the snails or crabs and they were fine.

Do the full dosage though, may be a little extra
