ATTn to those whom bought Corals from me

Jar*Head · 01/23/2007, 12:51 AM

Guys, i may have Red bugs. Please check your tank, corals, making sure you don't have any redbug. I am sorry if you got it from me. Please let me know, i may be able to give you some interceptor if you got the RB from me. Once again, i am very sorry. I did not know till today.

so sorry to hear. very frustrating to have. i went throught this about two months ago. i will be dipping everthing going foward.

great for stepping up and letting the others know about it. I do commend you for that. hoefully they will not be to mad about it. it does appear you are trying to doing the right thing.
props. good luck with your treatment

Yeah... that is really cool of you. I got some SPS from a guy on RC, and nearly lost all of my caps due to his having monti-eating nudis. Props for being honest!

I just don't want to sell something to member when its infested with Bugs or FW. I hate those who know they has something in their tank and still selling Frags and the buyer has to deal with the problem. I do offer interceptor ot anyone who bought frags or corals from me if they have RB in their system. It will be free of charge and pick up at my house this weekend.

That is very nice of you to warn reefers who bought sps from you. I hope they already considered qt their frags before introducing their sps into their main tank.

RIGHT ON MATE!

Jar*Head · 01/23/2007, 03:07 PM

Talking about Redbug, i think it came with the tank

.

H22ATypeS · 01/23/2007, 03:33 PM

Yah mann those red bugs!....they can live through a 1 month vinegar bath with tap water...with no tank filtration running.....

Just be happy I cleaned the tank for you before delivery!

Where's my stuff?

rockindacheeks · 01/23/2007, 03:46 PM

Who wants a free Mille frag? Good Color big size...

jk man. I gotta go home and inspect mine.

SPSFiend · 01/23/2007, 08:48 PM

What's the best way to inspect for red bugs? I didn't by anything from REEFER714 but I figure it wouldn't hurt to do an inspection.

HenryTran · 01/23/2007, 08:52 PM

magnifying glass.

Jar*Head · 01/23/2007, 09:00 PM

If you have eyes is 20/20, you should be able to see it

Better than transmitting herpes! hehehe I'm sorry, I couldn't help it.

sykospark · 01/24/2007, 01:34 AM

My boyfriend is chortling and saying that 'I'm sorry, my tank had crabs. I didn't mean to give them to you'. He thinks this is funny. He also overfed my tank and caused a nitrate spike. :P

er1c_the_reefer · 01/24/2007, 02:27 AM
