More to follow

 

Notice the head and the rest of the body, its really hard to see the head due to it being clear, but you can make it out!

 

Here is some of the damage these little guys can inflict upon your montipora

 

The frag is all i have left, the other small colony is all infected.. :-/

 

doesnt it hurt you with each frag you do! Great pictures

 

yea definitely sucks losing such a big part of my frags but rather save a little then risk losing it all, they must have went to town on it last night because it wasnt that bad yesterday, just shows how much you can try and get but when i dipped again, i found just as many as i did when i first dipped yesterday, so even 2 dips i doubt i got them all. ill be posting status updates on my corals, right now they are a little freaked from the dipping/cutting/scrubbing

 

Ouch... That is rough to say the least. Very good information. Thanks for sharing. They seem like the cockroaches of the reefing pests.

 

Yup, they are pretty notorious feeders, the eggs are also very had to spot i couldnt see them with a lighted magnifying glass but my camera picked it up... once they get going they are pretty much uncontrollable from what ive read but we will see if this treatment will actually work out! so far i am noticing the polyps are coming back out so thats a good sign that it didnt kill the coral, i left it in the dip for quite some time while i was scrubbing and cutting :-/

 

it only takes three months for the larvae to die

 

looks good sorry for all the pieces you got to throw
