Glad that worked for you. Don't forget to do the rest of the treatments! Oh, and try to get a shot from the same angle tomorrow when the polyps are out more.

I cheated and just did one. 3 weeks later I found more bugs. Someone else here did 2 and found more bugs, so follow Dustin's advice, do the three treatments one week apart and do a 25% water change after each treatment. This isn't a thing to try and cut corners on.

I have small 1mm red slug looking organizisms everywhere! I thought it was algea until i wathced them move up and down the glass. The leave teh corals alone, but they are all over the rock. I have not heard of interceptor? Would this help my situation? Ill post some pics of them later.

Sounds like flatworms not redbugs. Different treatment.
