last time i had them, every square inch of my 200lbs of rock was covered, I mean you could barely even see the rock. I noticed 3 on sunday, now i've got about 200. you definately don't want them to get out of hand.

Hey Tang Daddy

In your search of FW did you ever come across of what was in Saliferts eXit
I have looked for the Health Canada notice that banned eXit but have not been able to find it.

That's good. Now...just don't give up on it like I did. As soon as you see one again, siphon and treat again. I believe that if you repeat that a few times, you'll win. I doubt you will get them all with one single treatment.

FWE is an excellent product, but it was banned (along with many other medications) by Health Canada about a year and a half ago. You'd have to smuggle it from the US...but it would suck if you got busted!
