black bugs

Hello… I have been experimenting with different treatment options for Coral Boring Spionid Worms. I did not realize there was a worm that could tick me off more than Vermetid snails. When I finally kept the Vermetid’s out (100%), I’m so blessed to discover these little devils. Pic unknown...

I’ve treated with interceptor an seems to be doing better I don’t see anymore on them. But has anyone else seen this or dealt with it before? Tanks been up a year an a half no issues. I haven’t had a single acro in the tank. I only house torches, hammers, blastos, acans, Zoa’s. The 24k torch I...

Noticed some of my acro frags have head really bad polpy extension lately and decided to dip some of them in coral Rx. I was trying to zoom in on this really small black dots, can anyone verify it is a black bug or do i need better zoom? Hard for me to tell if its just debris or something worse...

Greetings fellow reefers, with great sadness my first post has to be about something so grim. I have a nanocube 40l with a mixed reef. Everything has been going fine for 2 years, I haven't added anything for a year. A few days back I started to notice STN on my Acro strawberry shortcake...

Hello, I was wondering if anyone out there has come across this mast big that I have found terrorising my frag tank. some people say black bug and some are say aefw.

I will admit up front that I have been unable to find and ID specifically which bug (white/black/red) I am going after. Each time I dip frags & colonies, I kill dozens and dozens of what look to be different sized (shrimp shaped) pods. Nothing that looks quite like tegastes. I've read several...

Hi Reefers. I’m after some help as I’m really unsure as to what I’m dealing with here I noticed one of my Acro’s is struggling and spent some time studying it. After a while, I noticed some very small black dots that moved ever so slowly. Only a couple but I’ve seen them on the stick now for...

i got black bugs on a frag from lfs so far i have lost a couple nice frags i see the bugs all over on my rock and on the bases of some of my sps about a week or two ago i was scrolling through a thread and saw someone post a reef safe black bug killer i was wondering if anyone can point me in...
