Interceptor spectrum chews. Those work perfect. That’s all we use.

+1 I just used these at 5x dose in my Acropora dominated tank.

I had to put the chew in the blender with tank water to get it dissolved.

Thank you, other forum threads I read stated tablets only. What was the dosage you used with the chews please?

1 Large chew for 300 gallons is the dosage. We dose 5-6x.

If you are desperate, you can buy milbemycin oxime from chemical companies without a Rx. Prices and quantities differ, so look around.

If you have starfish and other inverts, they can get really mad at 5-6x dose. The corals won't mind. I would not use any more than the smallest effective dose into a reef tank. It has been a long time since I dosed any, but I had hundreds of mini brittle stars floating around after a normal dose.

Thanks all, once you dose the tank how long do you wait to do a water change and start activated carbon?
