They're back! Acro bugs...

[SamMule]

 

[SamMule]

3 rounds of interceptor a few months back. Must not have got them all, because my Garf Bansai is infested. Don't see them on any other acros yet, so hopefully another 3 rounds will get em this time.

Trying to get a good video of them running around, but my phone camera just doesn't have the resolution.

Oh, you got cooties.
Must have missed the eggs.
How long in between doses did you wait?
This really sucks, sorry op.

You can see them in the first video.

 

[SamMule]

Yes. Second video is better though. You can see a few of the silhouetted as they crawl across the tips.... little jerks!

Doses were about a week apart IIRC.

What works for this

 

[SamMule]

Interceptor. It seems recommended dosages vary. I'm going 11.5mg for my ~66g tank.

Okay, I personally never had them or used the stuff.
Someone on here that has done both will chime in.
I do know it won't work for the eggs. I'm assuming that would have been the fail spot.

 

[SamMule]

I wonder if a dragonette would help keep them in check

Interceptor. It seems recommended dosages vary. I'm going 11.5mg for my ~66g tank.

I do 2 large pills for my 50g cube. 23mg each. 1 pill and then add the 2nd pill a couple hours later and let it marinate for 48 hours. That’ll kill them for sure.

 

[SamMule]

Maybe i'll try that. So far, they seem mostly unaffected

The white and brown bugs need a stronger dose. 3 rounds spaced out 10-14 days and you should be good……unless more sneak in on new frags

 

[SamMule]

Thanks. They do look white to me, so that could be the case. Unfortunately, I only have 3 tablets left. May have to get a script and order more

 

[SamMule]

Substantial improvement in 24 hours. Also, emerald crabs seem to be unaffected.

Emerald crabs will be toast. Sorry

Must just take longer to die then.

Mine died as well. I couldn't catch my shrimp and it hit them pretty hard, pretty fast. They were just kinda floating around after a couple hours. I netted and moved them to another system. One expired the other made it.
