I never had those,but i think "Fluke tabs" is what people have used in the past.

Just hang tight someone will come along who has had expirerence with these pests.

When I had them I transferred all acros to QT and did weekly dips with TMPCC. Haven't seen one since December 06. If you already have a QT setup with a good biological filter you'll probably have a better acro success rate than I did. Plus I think I od'd the acros on TMPCC the first two dips because I was on a mission to kill the aefw whether or not it resulted in collateral damage.

I've heard of using Interceptor as a treatment. I believe that Interceptor is a prescription med for dogs and cats that must be obtained from the vet. I know that my company used to be able to get vet scripts from the local vet for fish without a problem. I don't know the dosage though so I would do some research.

Interceptor will not kill aefw. Interceptor will kill red bugs.
