Default Bugs

So a couple hours later and after 10 mins in a peroxide bath the frogspawn seems to be doing fine, but my lights are off so I can't really tell. The Polyps are out More now though then they have been In the last few days. I'm going keep a close eye on it because supposedly these bugs are very hard to get rid of. However, peroxide continues to amaZe me on how many different uses it has in this hobby.

Sorry greggZ I meant to post here, none of those pics are the bugs I seen, but they do have the shape of the second pic from what I can tell.

Exactly what kind of "bugs" did you read up on? You mentioned Interceptor earlier, you weren't reading about "red bugs" were you? Red bugs only affect smooth-skinned Acropora corals.

Don't think they are flatworm, but they do love Lps. There is little to no info but what I could find I found on rc. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/sh....php?t=1776624

Default Dips

So my 6 headed purple torch got the bugs as well, and I've dipped it in a 50/50 tank watereroxide mix for 3 mins. We will see if the torch survives.

Lol I am pretty sure I have something similar on my torch. Let me know how it goes for you. Torch looked great and all of a sudden lots of tiny white critters and now it doesn't open as much. Did an iodine dip and it did not help. I read about the interceptor as well. I am hoping to pick up a Melanurus*wrasse see if it will eat whatever it is.

Default Peroxide

50/50 with the cheap 3% stuff from the dollar Store. The torch seems to be perfectly fine now. (I need a camera)
