White "stringy" things

[twilliard]

How many are you seeing?

 

[Robertchrisroph]

2 mybe 3 of the rice heads

 

[twilliard]

Are you able to get to their spot and glue them?

 

[Robertchrisroph]

Yes

 

[twilliard]

That is what I would do with so few of them left.
It doesn't take a lot of glue just make sure to cover it.
Over a short amount of time you won't even notice the glue in the tank

 

[Robertchrisroph]

Thank you

 

[twilliard]

@twilliard well I'm getting ready to do the bucket treatment on some rocks. I have rock that is to long for a 5 gallon bucket. Can I use a plastic rubber made tub at 10 gallons instead of the 5 gallons. Of water mix. And I could do more rock at a time? Thank you

 

[twilliard]

Is this Digitate hydroids?
How many are we talking about?

 

[Breakthecycle2]

The way I see it is, even if you see 5, there are more you can't. In the plumbing, pumps, deep in the rocks. Your best bet is to just use fenbenzole. It takes three days and you can be done with it.

 

[Robertchrisroph]

Lol. I see five on just a ornamental coral. Lol. This is from low flow areas. So I bought 2 more hydor 1500. So if you think still best route is dose whole tank? I'm ready. So I have 4 1500 hydors now. And yes digitate thank you

Flow has nothing to do with eradicating these. I would do a full tank dose. I did it and since, I haven't seen any.

Hi Robert!
You can use 10 gallons to fit the rock. I am assuming we didn't get all of them.
The trick about using the bucket method is you don't want to introduce the fenbendazol till they are out and happy in the container.
Once they come out then add the fenbendazol with a powerhead for circulation.
I have another full dose made up if you would rather do a full tank treatment.

 

[Robertchrisroph]

Yes. I would like a full dose to do tank and equipment. So I get them all. Thank you

 

[twilliard]

Ok Robert!
Can you send me a picture of the amount you have?
I don't want to dose too much of it.
Once I see the side shot I will have it on its way :-)

Printed!
Glad to help!
