Bugs!!

[Aquattro]

I'm not gonna ask why you put them there knowingly
Again, I have to admit I can't assign a degree a damage. Since reefers tend to play and change other things often, it's hard to say what is caused by the bugs. One guy over here discovered the bugs when he lost 4 colonies, and he thought it was from the bugs. I reassured him it wasn't, but who knows. I have not had to remove a dead coral yet that I think the bugs killed, but if the progress of some of the affected pieces continues linearly, they will die in time. I am experimenting with moving them to lower light areas, and in the case of the branch in the 5g,it is helping (or maybe the temp going into the 90's is do it).
At this point I can only say they are pests, not killers, but I do have damage that I directly blame on them. Maybe my tank has features that allow reproduction and I have many more than other people...again, who knows. I'm hoping my cyano experiment works, as that may lead to hope in ridding my tank of the suckers!
