All,
I've been contracted with Coral magazine to write an article on crustacean parasites of aquarium fish (copepods and isopods). I have a really short deadline for this (in five days - ugh!).
I'm interested in hearing from folks regarding their experiences, both good or bad, with controlling these parasites.
One issue I want to hear more about is the micro-predator, the Cirolanid isopod.
I'm also interested in photos - especially clear photos of the firefish copepod parasite, Serpentisaccus magnificae. This is the critter that causes the spiral shaped egg mass that is often misidentified as a "worm". I can pay some fees for good photos.
Thanks!
Jay
