Marie's 175g mixed reef (new pics added jan 27)

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?

No, once you spot a few it's too late they will be all over the tank I just can't see them. They're like fleas that way
