WOOHOO! Got my interceptor
 
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.

WooHoo... save me some.
PM me what I owe you.

Scale
 
I have a digital scale. Let me know if you need it.

Stan

Hi Stan,

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

Thanks,
-Harvey

Where did you guys get red bugs from? :confused:

Reefhawk1 04-16-2005 01:49 PM

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

Stan

mr_alberta 04-16-2005 01:50 PM

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.

hmmmm, if I did drugs, I might be able to help with the scale....

:biggrin:

Your welcome Harvey!

I heard that alot of people in Calgary also have a redbug issue...possible source?

mr_alberta 04-17-2005 03:05 PM

I dunno, and I also don't want to point any fingers really. S**t happens I guess.

KrazyKuch 04-17-2005 06:31 PM

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:

Murminator 04-17-2005 10:08 PM

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?

mr_alberta 04-17-2005 10:09 PM

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.

:eek: PHEW! You scared me there Brad! :eek:

Double PHEW!!!

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

We were talking to tony and he said that one of the LFS was selling frags that had red bugs!!!

EmilyB 04-17-2005 11:28 PM

Yikes, I believe we should find out which store ? :eek:
