Acropora “spiders”

[El Tonta]

Anybody have any luck using interceptor on acropora spiders (Pycnogonid)?

Looks like a death sentence, thinking about making the tank fish only, as it is somewhat newer.

thank you

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

Sorry, I don't have any direct experience with these, but page four of this thread seems to show that interceptor works on them:

You think AEFW is bad? Pycnogonid infestation!! Is my tank doomed?

Sorry if this isn't the right forum section, but these Pycnogonids (AKA Sea Spiders) seem to eat any type of coral that looks delicious. If anyone has dealt with these, please chime in! After 1+ month thinking I had AEFW (because the acro bites from these Sea Spiders look just like AEFW bites)...
