Your response to my previous post was the sign of a real a'hole! I post questions on here because people experience different results and the responses can outperform alot of information gleaned from books, of which I have accumulated a library of in my 10 years of fishkeeping, instructing diving etc. Why bother to post if you have nothing constructive to say? I would not use this board to vent my fury over twats like you normally but you hide behind an alias with no email so I cannot address you privately. Thank god there are people who actually post decent responses.

Because i noted you had recieved the answer you wanted to hear on the preveous post, i was concerned you may not go back and read my reply.

Ive had pods in marine aquariums stocked only with tufa rock. For someone who's bought so much LR, shouldn't you have looked into the benefits of it. It's as equally as important as knowing about Aptasia, and im sure you know about them, right.
If you had been aware of any of the tiny bug's and things that can exist in the sytems then how far did you expect to get with a description like.

Implying that these 2-3mm whitish bugs are somehow uniqe to this prop tank, differing to the 2-3mm whitish bugs that you allready know about. Having been in the buisness of recently purchaseing and installing one great mutha of a reef system.

2 Picasso Triggers
1 Pinktail Trigger
1 Black spot angel
1 Flame Angel
1 Lemon Peel Angel
1 Coral Beauty
1 6" Naso Tang (lipstick)
2 Regal Tangs (1 is 8")
2 Yellow Tangs
1 Purple Yellow tailed tang
1 Sohal Tang
1 Clown Tang
1 Coral Hawkfish
1 Marroon Anenome fish
1 Neon damsels (5")
5 blue/yellow damsels
4 green Chromis
1 Blue devil damsel
1 Copperband
1 Bluestreak cleaner wrasse (3 years old for all you anti cleaner wrasse folks out there)
approx in excess of 100 other inverts including hard & soft corals including home propogated acropora, ritteri anenome, carpet anenome growing daily from 8" to nearly 2 foot in less than a year

The 300G stock list, and this was all kept behind 10mm glass. And it blew up, inevitable in my opinion. And i dont think it could have lasted that long before it happend, a year and i'd be impressed.
Now there must have been something doing a real number on your pods for them to have been completely invisible in a system that large. Especially with regular feedings. And there are no obligate pod feeders among them.
Basically Tony i blew off because i dont like your attitude. You can go about propagating if you like, but i think you may have heard someone mentinon pods while you picked up the various techniqes. Or were you really trying to get a respectable answer from a description like

They are like 1 - 2 mm whitish bugs, any ideas?

Flame me if im wrong here

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 Yellows, 1 Purple, 1 Powder Blue, 2 Regals (1 8" long, the other 2" growing daily!), 1 Sohal , 1 Clown, 1 Lipstick
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And besides if you will check the stock list above you will notice that there has been the addition of 1 powder blue.
This was taken from a later post argueing over the conditions suitable for tangs. Assuming this is an updated version, and this is an addition from the stock list above. I would say thats a wise move to go chuck that in there last of all. And i bet you quarantined it, because im sure you wouldn't want all those fish to get ICK.
Please yourself Tony, i wont be talking to you again.

Theres more i can read through if you like, 48 posts worth. Do you want to go on?
