Only corals I have in the tank I got from the swap, a hammer and some other geen encrusting sps, I can't think of the name, frog spawn, toadstool, challice and acan from FF, punk pallys and GSP. then the croky gorgonian from petco, I have added some fish but none of the water they came in went into the tank, and I FW dip my fish.

Nope only rock in my tank came from my old tank, and then dry rock from a fellow reefer, any ideas how I should get rid of them?

First you got to figure out what they are to get rid of them. Did you look up what Rob told you? You should go on the web site www.chucksaddiction.com/hitchhikers.html In order to treat or get rid of....you must diagnose the problem first I know a couple other hitchhiker web sites if you don't find it here? |

Yup, I missed that post. I'd say that's it. I guess you treat them just like Red Bugs. Interceptor seems to work for most.

Having a six line wrasse will help. They eat all the pests. Also a camel back shrimp in a qt, but don't leave it with the camel too long of it will start eatting it
