For those that were wondering what happened to the rock that was there, you can quit worrying it went into this tank

Unfortunately, while moving rock around I discovered I once again have red bugs.
I'm in a dilemma, the last time I treated the whole tank with inteceptor, after the second treatment and during the third, I lost over half my acroporas and it took a good 6 months for my tank to recover. Right now my tank is doing great, colours are good, growth and polyp extension are good. I really don't want to treat in case it actually was the inteceptor that crashed my tank...I don't know what to do

OH NO.....I have treated mine a couple of full treatments and never had the problems you had....I now Q each coral AND treat them all for red bugs before they go into my display as I would rather lose the colony that I'm treating than the display tank and experience what you did...I don't know what I would do in your position.....

I did quarantine everything and inspected with magnifying glass but I made the mistake of not automatically treating everything.
I know for a fact there was no red bugs in the tank in July but I have added a lot of things since then and I would of bet a lot of money nothing I added had red bugs. Good thing I don't bet or I'd be broke

If the corals were stressed I wouldn't hesitate to treat but they look so good right now

Oh Oh! That's terrible, Marie!
If there's anything I can do to help, let me know. It's obviously a new infestation; any chance you can remove and treat just the new acros in hopes that they haven't spread yet?
