sorry if this has been answered...BUT....do redbugs ONLY affect acros??? I "think" I might have redbugs as I am getting some webs between branches and I used a flashlight last night and believe that I saw some...removing frags to treat is easy so that I can accomplish....but the other corals like Mille, montipora etc...will they support redbugs?
(is a Prostrata considered an acro, SPS newbie question  )

 Yes a prostrata is actually Acropora prostrata. Webs between branches doesn't necessarily mean redbugs. If you look at one of your "browner" corals its easiest to see the bugs as little glistening yellowy bits (my best description) or on a lighter coral you can see them fairly easily towards the tips of the coral. You could even reach in the tank and bring a frag to the glass to see them (if you don't have them all nailed down). Personally I would take out all the hard corals and treat them, you never know what they might harbor.

Maybe these will help, a few macro shots of what red bugs really look like:
