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.
Thanks for the input

Black bugs generally scurry around but hard to tell as there is a lot of camera movement but can also be Otracods which are tiny but move like that seen in your image. Its purely a guess and microscope images would confirm.
 
Is it just me ? Or I can’t view this vid

thanks for the response. Any microscope you recommend on amazon for a good price?

Many reefers here use a typical school type but of course if you have no dollar limit, buy the best you can afford

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
