OK...... i have quite a few... some very very small and some rather large!!
i just need to work out how serious this is...? it is kinda mixed information on the net. |

iv also found a thread about getting rid from a sea horse site.
this lady mixed kalk up with water and made it into dough, flatened it out and laid it over the infected area, she said you could see them dying off. |

yeah that seems to be the solution.... problem is there are quite a few..... 'that are visable'? how many are there on underneath of rocks, between rock and glass that i cannot see?
tough call trik, i guess get as many as you can. 
I'm wondering how many people actually have these and don't see them..... are they more common than uncommon?  |

seems so , i certainly dont have them but at least i have an idea about them now, |
| 04-07-2006 14:44 by drummerduck |
trik thanks so much dude!!
If anyone has anymore info on this please post.  |

Seems like the Kalk paste is the way to go and these things should be gotten rid of. I'm wondering how many other people out there that keep Marines know about these.... this is going to be a mission, to the extent where i may give this hobby up as this is just so demoralizing....... |

ok have you tried a turkey baster as it sucks them straight off without damage to your rock . i hadsome wheni first set up the tank about a 3 x 3 inch coverage and i sucked them off one by one but they didnt come back , so far a lucky escape by the sound of it |
