Ah, what a wonderful community we have here. A very generous canreefer (who happens to live a few blocks from me) has offered up some Interceptor so I will be able to nuke those little bastards after all. I have started to collect as many inverts out of my tanks as possible to place them into a holding tank in preparation for the 3-4 week treatment.

I have quite a few inverts that I would like to save, cleaner shrimp, fire shrimp, pom pom crabs, sexy shrimp, hermit crabs (yes, I like them, deal with it!), acropora crabs. I think this is going to be the challenging part as there are quite a few colonies with acropora crabs and I am determined to fish as many out as I can. This will mean ripping encrusted colonies off of rocks to get at those crabs too I guess.. oh joy!

I realize that there is the possibility that the invert holding tank will contain red bugs transferred from the main display so I will have to keep a close eye on them during the course of the month to evaluate the viability of returning them to the main display. In the end Interceptor would likely be a death sentence to them anyway so if there is any hope of saving them from that fate I feel as if I should make an attempt.
