Marc check out Page 20 on the thread by Stoney Mahony (I think he has some other posts on the previous pages that you might want to read up on), he has done a few tests on them.

Some reefers on RC have had success with TMPCC aka Tropic Marin Pro Coral Cure dip. I've read it works on red bugs as well as AEFWs but not the eggs. We don't have this product locally though

Hope that helps

Actually Hidden Reef has this stuff now

Hey guys, just a heads up, but Health Canada or something has issued a warning on these pills, and the APones are no longer allowed to be imported into Canada...but now, to save acros later...

Has anyone heard of sucess using dragon pipefish for predation or am I confusing this with "red bugs"?

Do you have a link to this? I'd be curious as to why it's being banned by Health Canada.

I have a letter for it at work...

I believe that it has ingredients that have been discovered to be carcinogenic. I will read it over again, but could not tell you if it is online anywhere.

The letter we got had about 12 fish medications on it that are no longer available for import, and the inventory we have is to be destroyed.

Figured I would give you guys a headsup.

Wow thanks for the info Nate, no need for the details on the meds though. I'm surprised they want you to destroy the remaining inventory instead of it being recalled for their disposal. I hope you guys don't just throw this stuff in the garbage as it doesn't sound like it is environment friendly.
