SPS Pest

[Kruss7]

Had an sps that was doing well randomly start to lose colour. Pulled it out and put it under the scope and found these eggs??? They don’t move and no pests came off when I dipped after but what are these?? They aren’t moving.

These are not AEFW, done dips and nothing comes off. I’ve dealt with them before and I can’t see these eggs with my eyes like I can with AEFW.

That is a branch of a tenius

Microscope is on 4x

Cannot see with naked eye. I did see something white on a coral I’m wondering if it’s white bugs?

Are we looking under the tissue of the coral ?
If that is the skin of the coral magnified and were looking through the tissue which is what it looks like to me. To me it looks like zooxanthella, is it everywhere you look ?

The coral is pretty bleached, I see the zooxanthella. I have a video here of something moving on the tissue. Let me know what you think? There is 2 things crawling and the one on the bottom moves more

This is only 4x zoom



Here you can see the video of 2 things moving on the coral.

Look where I circled and you can see them moving

Hey
I see the movement your talking about but I've no idea what it could be, friend or foe.
Sorry, you'll have to wait for someone with more knowledge then me to chime in.

Maybe ciliates?

They aren't necessary bad though, some say they help the coral

Gotta be white bugs? Just got a video of them.

Any one have the dosage for interceptor with white bugs in a 300g?
