If I go the upgrade (downgrade?) route, I can salvage all my remaining pieces. I'm not too upset about it, I had this change in mind for a while. It's just going to suck tossing out so much coral..

Wow Brad sorry to hear, with all your experience though I thought you would be up for a challenge of dipping hundreds of acros, that really sucks man but im sure you will make the right decision on how to proceed. What about setting up a temp tank and dip system, you could just dip what you want and sell/donate the rest, or remodel the picnic table:cry::mrgreen:

I haven't added any corals for over 2 years because of the fear of diseases. And recently my good friend **** down his tank and have me some corals, and I got red bugs. Now I'm in the second week of treatment for that. So going forward, I'm going to stick to my gut of not adding any corals, even from sources I trust. Why do we do this hobby again?

Just had this a few weeks ago. Interceptor makes easy work of Acro eating flatworm. Its a bit pricey, and you have to get it from a vet, but I used it and my sps has never been happier. It sure makes easy work of "the hardest flatworm to get rid of", just make sure to remove shrimp and hermits if you do. Good luck!

Guess I should add for those who don't know, Interceptor is a dog worm medication that has proven to be extremely effective against all types of flat worms. Look it up online, its pretty impressive. You all seem to think its a huge problem, but with Interceptor its just plain easy. Bye Bye flat worms.

No predator would ever eradicate the pest only get fat off them and possibly "controll" them
