Re: ACRO CRABS
Unfortunately, Acro crabs will not eradicate AEFW or Red Bugs. You'll need to treat with the appropriate medications and quarantine procedures for those.

Re: ACRO CRABS
Agreed. Some species can potentially pick at the offenders to a degree, especially with the larger flatworms, but they will not fix or prevent an infestation. Overall, they are far more useful for larger predators, such as fishes, starfish, etc., as opposed to parasites (or micropredators, whichever you prefer).
