Ok Lalo hate me I don't give a flying F***. But U and I got a bunch of corals from a fellow ie reefer, let's say his name is Ben for the sake of id protection. Ben told me that he had aefw be for he gave me a thing. I know he told u the same thing cause I was standing right there when he told u. I took every thing home and dipped the corals and didn't find a single aefw on the corals. I noticed shortly after getting the corals they had red bugs. I hit up Ben and told him that the corals had red bugs and I was doing an interceptor treatment that day. The next weekend he told me that he had red bugs too and he ordered interceptor but it was taking a while to come. So I gave him a treatment. A few weeks after I treated I started seeing bite marks from aefw. Then the next weekend I hit up Ben and he was seeing the same. So I contacted you saying "hey bro me and Ben have red bugs and aefw's and check your corals." U told me u were good u had dipped every thing. Yea so did I. Well I just talked to Ben two hours ago and he said he went to your house yesterday and saw that u have red bugs. So I do know u also have aefw too cause me and Ben both had the same thing. So I asked the mods here to unbanned me so I could tell u publicly to check your f***ing corals. Don't be a f*** d*** and pass the parasites around. You are a fairly new reefer and may not know the signs of these parasites. But if I'm telling u that me and Ben both have these parasites and u got a lot of corals from Ben witch knew he had before giving you the corals then u have them too

Also yes I've told everyone we know to watch out from buying corals off u. Cause u and I got corals off Ben and Ben had aefw and red bugs. I told victor to check his stuff be for I text u last month and told him the whole story. Victor came up clean with no parasites I don't want to see him or anyone else get them either. So if u don't have anything let me come over and see to make sure your clean. But Ben is saying u have red bugs

This should be a sticky...good call Emac. Anyone that has been told even as much as "hey, you might have pests" should either be completely sure and verified before selling OR disclose that there is a possibility they might have something when selling OR not sell at all. We all have to look out for each other in our community. And yes I know that people like Cody is gonna say that everyone is responsible to qt-ting after they buy and buyer beware and all that jazz but I think prevention is just another step that can in a round about way, help us all sooner or later. P.s have nuttin but love for ya Cody..u were just the first person that Came to mind..lol

No sticky needed. Here's the deal. First I don't want to see parasites passed on with out knowing it. If he had posted "there might be a slight chase I have red bugs or aefw I would still b on vacation. Then second many of u guys have asked me about "That guy Lalo that always posts his cell phones number" and I tell everyone the same "He a good guy that I think that doesn't really know how the forum thing works, cause he thinks the forum is a reef club like IEMAS, SCMAS, scrk, and so on." But if he's spreading parasites around it looks bad on me because I said he was a good guy. So I called him out publicly cause I already text him once.

Protecting our community vital. Its like lurkings thread the other day about the reefers code, it needs to live on. If you know your dirty you need to put it out there. Don't be ashamed of it, use it to learn and grow. If you need help we are here to help. Not saying anything is wrong, especially if youve been told is not acceptable

ugh... this really urks me... when SCRK was fresh "someone" was doing the same thing... he gave me red bugs, and i told him... dude, i got redbugs from you... then, he he took frags to the SCRK meet the next weekend.... oh man... it got to the point that i almost kicked his a$$...

anyways... yeah, give people the choice... if you have a QT and medication to handle them pest then cool... someone will buy frags if you do... but don't just sell frags because you have frags if you have bugs... that's messed up... all you're doing is making the forum less enjoyable for others... there is indeed a code among reefers...

now that you didn't say anything, people are going to see you as a different type of reefer... too bad...
