well whatever bruce told yall he mustve been talking about something else cuz these are 100% the mites that larry was telling us all about. i checked out his thread and did a google search to bring up more pictures and the things i had on my acro frag WERE those little mites ::shock::

they didnt move quickly at all mharris. these things were very slow and they were so small that i had a hard time focusing my eyes to even see them, but their sheer number on the coral was enough to give it a reddish hue under my lighting, thats what tipped me off to their presence. when i took it out to give it the dip the bugs retreated to the polyps just like larry had described in his thread.

i doubt that that many mites couldve come from aquatek without them knowing about it beforehand so thats why im not that concerned about their shop, besides they too have pride in their tanks and i doubt they would allow something like this to go unnoticed the way that aaron assured me by not being worried or anything. im just glad that i was able to get rid of them, like i said that seachem dip is some excellent stuff!
