Thanks to Catherine and Kevin for helping me out!

Now, to nuke some red bugs :evil:

Oh, does anyone have access to a very accurate scale? I need to measure out my doses...

Thanks.

Hi Stan,

Can your scale do milligrams? I need 3 0.2G doses...

Thanks,

Unfortunately my scale only measures ounces and grams. It isn't sensitive enough to pick up milligrams :frown:

Deb, that is a very good question. All I know for certain is that they did not come from anyone in Edmonton as I've never gotten any SPS locally.

No problem Stan. Thanks for your offer though.

Where did you hear this ? I'm not aware of any canreefers here with this problem, the ones I know anyway. :eek: If they are out there, perhaps they should warn people before selling their frags. :confused:

What do red bugs look like? (lemme guess "red bugs") I just recently got a frag from Newguy will I have them? what do I look for?

They don't affect Montipora sp. of corals. Only Acropora corals so since you don't have any Acros, you shouldn't have anything to worry about Murray.

Likely you'll have them too. To see them, grab a magnifying glass and hold the frag up to the glass and look around. You could probably fit 2 or 3 red bugs on the head of a pin, they're very very small.

Oh, right. The frag would need to have been an acro, since they only live on acros.

I heard they came from a store, not an individual trader from canreef.
