From my experience the red bugs didn't seem to do much more than irritate the corals a little. I still had great color and no receding of tissue. After leaving them alone for 4 months i decided to finally treat with interceptor. After the first treatment I saw some corals put out polyps that had never ever had any polyp extension before. I have yet to see wether the rate of growth will increase at all but I am optimistic that it will. I will have to agree with you Chin. The tank looks much happier now.
