i don't have em but i went over to a friends house. apparently they're having a super bowl party on his 12"x12" monti cap and some of his other montis. what should he do to get rid of this??? the cap is really really beat up. he thought it wasnt getting enough light initially but after examining his latest piece he added... that was the culprit. they spread from that coral.

Get a toothbrush on those eggs, don't be afraid to scrub them off they're gooey.

Try some coral revive dips, Montis don't seem to be too fond of iodine, they're effective, but stress the coral out quite a bit.

hes going to get some potassium permanganate from a local chem shop. i've never seen these buggers in person. it was a sight to see them all congregating on one of his montis.
