Hour 5 4:15 – 5:15

All fish and corals are normal. Mysis and pods still swimming in fuge, about the same amount as in 1st hour. Can’t find any Red bugs at all.
Began to prepare to put canister filter back on tank rinsed clean and full (six bags of carbon) of carbon. I put some floss in there too in hope to pick up the loose pods.

Hour 6 5:15 – 6:15

Nothing eventful this hour. All fish and coral doing fine.
At 6:15 I began to do the water change I did about 30%. Put the canister filter and skimmer back on line. All fish and coral doing great. No Red bugs anywhere. Still see some pods and mysis in fuge.

Next day :
No sign of any Red bugs at all. Serpent stars are going wild. I have noticed a drop in my small snail population. Serpent stars are all over that one. I did place one of my power heads so that it would push water behind rocks , as to push any dead bodies out. One dead peppermint shrimp body did come out and I was able to remove it. I was searching for the other one and its still alive. I guess I will share anymore things that happen in the days to come. Here are some picture of post treatment.
