I removed 2 of my three cucs, Not a good idea and I would not recommend doing this if you treat. My tiger died when my black ejected his stomach. Truely disgusting act. The black however, is still alive and well. I also removed several stars, they all seem to be fine but again really un-nessecary as the 20 or so left in the tan are uneffected by the treatment. I also took out the only coral band shrimp I could catch minus most of his anteni and both front claws, he is mending well.
Anyway, I missed a few hermits which died the next day but the interesting thing is that my fire shrimp and 3 clearners are fine. No worse for ware. I was sure they would have also died fairly soon after the treatment.
I only did one water charge 6 hours after the first treatment and added 2 cups of carbon. The good news is I have no signs of red bugs. I am treating again this Thursday. I think that I some how got lucky on the dose I used and it was strong enough to kill the bugs and hermits but not the larger shrimp.
Anyone ever had shrimp survive a treatment of intercepor??
