Angry Need Advise

I have cirolanoid isopods in my tank that has been cycling for almost 7 weeks. I have been catching them at night and am getting tired of it! Basically I want opinions on whether I should keep fighting or just give up and start over with new rock and sand.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. I don't have first hand experience with these lil suckerz but I know they are bad news. Are you sure it's not one of their harmless scavenging cousins? If it were me and I was sure of the identity then I would cut my headaches now and replace the rock and sand. You could also run the tank fallow for a couple of months and see if they don't die out from starvation.
