Help small little worm like thing spotted

tineng · November 9, 2004

My SPS colonies seems to be dieing of one after anthor for the pass month. Initially thought it was water parameters but test of the various parameters seems to be the same as it alway has been....

- KH 8

- CA 400

- No3 0

- PO 0

At first though it was the volka method....but upon thinking i find it strange that only the SPS with Acro crabs seems not to be affected...then very very close examination, i realsie that the dead SPS seems to have spots that move!!!! after starting really hard i realsie they look like very very small pods moving around (less then 1 mm)...could these guys be the guys killing off my SPS????

anyone has any experience dealing with these things???? also just brough lugols solution...how do you do a dip for the affected SPS???? and should i also do a dip on the unaffected SPS (some with nice Acro Crabs in them)

guess i can't do anymore shopping for the upcomigng shipment....
