Does anyone have a dog medication called Sentinel 2 or 3 tablets? I found few red bugs in my system and no vets sell me few tablets in Richmond area.
If you have please let me know with your price.
Thanks
Hiro

Ok, I've got a medication and Poured into my system around 6pm. Red bugs are still alive and also my shrimps(I couldn't catch them) are still alive. Is it normal? Does anyone know when those red bugs start to dying? I cut a half of Sentinel tablet and it was pulverized. Mixed with RO water. I believe that I'm following right direction.

Well if sentinel does not work you can try bayer complete insect killer.
Only in QT though, it will kill fish and inverts.
It is supposed to kill AEFW and red bugs.
Google it, lots of hits

What size tablet did you use Hiro ? Did you take carbon offline ? You also want to leave the skimmer running but disconnect the airline.

Unfortunately I don't have QT tank, so I'm not able to do your solution.
But thank you

I'm using 23mg of Milbemycin oxime and 460mg of Lufenuron.
I remove airline from skimmer, carbon, GFO, filter socks and bio-pellets. All reactors and skimmer were running during a treatment for 12hrs. I still see few more Red Bugs. I'll do second one week later and also dip all removeable frags.
I'll kill them all bugs!!
Thanks
