I found this older research and thought I would link it here. In it they say there is a free swim stage and that they can not live longer than 3-5days without a host.

As I find more info I will load the links as well.
Fwiw I completed a total transfer of all acros to the frag system and dipped every acro in a bayer solution then a rinse and also a final rinse prior to going in the frag system. It was suprising how many critters came off just in the first and final rinse let alone the dip.
I had lots of pileslike this of floating copepods at the end on top of the ones that didnt float. Astrea tars, brittle stars, different types of flat worms(green, red , red/yellow) . We will have to see how this turns out.
Atleast there all in the frag system and not in the main.
Hetes a pic of one batch getting a final rinse.
