You spend your time reading on the horribleness of aefw and never expect to get hit, lucky me found a fw on my acro and decided to dip the specific coral in some coralrx (only thing at hand) and found 2 fw's came off, after inspection found a few egg patches under the plug.
After someones response on facebook decided to cut the base off and just toss it. Yesterday I decided to take out all my acros and dip them all with coralRX. After a long hour and half (all frags) of dipping found 6 of almost 50 frags had eggs under the plug. I have decided to cut ties with the encrusted frag plug bases and save what could be saved.
After finally completing the dip found dozens of copepods, small brittle stars, asterina stars, and few fw's. From posts I've seen it seems i'm lucky I did not have a large adult population but found several egg patches.
Wish me the best of luck - hope I do not regret going deep with sps now - Will follow some friends advice and start a schedule of dipping twice a week for a few weeks. Sadly loss my wrasse a week ago when he decided to go surfing - natural predator now gone, seems pests have come to the light.
