Default Red BUGS!!!

ok im about to go crazy here... those buggers killed off one colony already ... so i decided to use revive and dip the infected sps and shake them around for 15 mins .... looks to be pretty good ... now i hear that interceptor works good but kills off pods, crabs, shrimp and snails ??? is this true ?
And does anyone have any interceptor i can buy ???

Revive won't kill red bugs. It might injure them a bit, but that's all. Interceptor is really the only answer. You can dip the corals instead of treating the whole tank. Do a Google search...I think it was Julian Sprung that was describing his treatment by dipping colonies with Interceptor for red bugs. Sorry I don't have time to find it for you.

There should be tons of info here, just give a search. You can get interceptor at most vets, although if you have your own vet, it's easier to explain
