The thing with root aphids is, unless you're looking for them, they've caused most of their damage by the time you notice them.

Please just only get clones from people you trust.
Do you have them in hydro or soil? Have you tried gassing them with co2? I wiped mine out immediately with a sealed bag over the ebb and flow pot and a co2 line pumping it full for 5-10 minutes. I thought I could trust this guy in Ft. Collins but it turns out he likes to screw people. Sterilize you're clones and throughly inspect them for bugs, a magnifying glass is really useful to.
