Tank closed**RED BUGS**

[Chaloupa]

I asked Marc (melev) questions too and he is quite helpful as were a couple of reefers here......I too had read almost everything on RC and didn't get much satisfaction for actual treatment....Marc's info and a bit from others put together was what worked for me......

I manage a vet hospital....I know there are some vets that will dispense Interceptor and some that won't...we're one of the "won't" clinics...basically it's an off label use which is not supported by the company who produces it....so unless we have a personal client/patient relationship with you we wouldn't dispense it...but like I said there are clinics that will...luckily I do use it regularly with my dogs and I had some on hand....there will be some PM's I'm sure that will let you know which vets around you will dispense with the article in hand, also, my vets (there are between 3-4 in my hospital) would not know what to do with a frag in hand with redbugs on....if they were a fish vet they "might" know.....but unfortunately the average vet wouldn't know what a redbug was....

The only "side effect" I had was a diatom bloom after treating...I did lose pods but they seem back in full force now...no other ill effects like nitrate spikes or anything...all in all it was easy, and it got rid of the red bugs....I would do it all over again if I had to...

Did you get them before or after the frag swap Jason?

I have no Idea, But I'd have to guess before.


Never thought they might have come in through the frags I got there.
Up until yesterday I thought Tropic marin's Coral dip took care of red bugs.

I talked to Tara Nova Vet in Rich and they can’t get it in till next Wed. I called Lori at Albatross in Lgy. and the can get it by Fri. if you order before 2pm today.

I'll first check out my Vet. for my Cats. See if they will get some.

I can't do much now as I'm at work.

Thanks
