Acro infested! What sps water is this?

[91Atrac]

I only have this on this frag and no other ATM that I can see. I know I have flatworms but this... Is not flatworms as far as I know http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/23/eqyje6am.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/23/y9yvu6a6.jpg

[91Atrac]

Well that was the only rough Acro but found these in my now dead frags from my local shops new shipment.

Worse thing to me is not this cu z it's the risk I took and lesson I learnt from cuz I'll now be dipping and setting up a quarantine tank for new arrivals. Lessons I learnt the hard way but atleast I've learnt before losing lots.

Local shop tho I know for a fact will just shrug his shoulders, tell me it's part of the gambling game and won't care about anything else. He doesn't dip and wish he would care more about his incoming stock and how it will affect his clients. But these white eggs are flatworms I assume correct?

[tang daddy]

Aefw lay their eggs in clutches near the base of freshly eaten acro and they're eggs are brown or light yellow and very tiny.

Those don't look like aefw eggs and the lay pattern is very different. Quite possible a fish or something else.

But with that said it's always good practice to dip inspect and dip again.

[tang daddy]

I take it back these look like they are

[91Atrac]

Hmm. A fish? Can't risk it for being a pest tho.

There is nothing worst than finding AEFW :(. I thought I had some in my tank and my heart just sank cause you can never truly get rid of them if they start to multiply and take over. I would quarantine all the sps in that tank and do dips or even using flat worm exit. This won't even kill the eggs, you have to do several cycled dips to ensure the new hatch-lings are annihilated as well. If those are AEFW eggs, I wish you best of luck.

Flat worm exit does nothing to the aefw. It only kills the ones that eat lps. The triangle ones

Oh really? damn I thought it would work on all types of flatworms. Thanks for the advice.
