Another Bayer Insect Killer Question

[64Ivy]

Is this product safe to use as a dip for 'lower light', smooth skinned acros as well as the others? How about with LPS?

 

[Red_Blenny]

IME, yes. I've tried it on a Red Dragon in a Bayer dip, a Scoly and on a couple of zoas. All lived in a bayer dip.

I have dipped smooth skinned acros with success. I haven't tried it with LPS, but I've read that others have done it with no ill effects.

I have dipped smooth skinned SPS (red dragon, hawkins, ice fire), blasto's, acans, palys, favia's, scoly's, wellsi's, and a sinulara. Haven't killed anything yet, @ 20ml/cup of the Bayer Advanced Insect Killer (not the one w/ germ control), with a 5 min dip.

What about M. Spongodes? I have an acro on the same rock I would like to dip. Thoughts?

 

[64Ivy]

Okay, here's a rather embarrassing follow up: Where do you guys get this stuff? I've been to several drug stores yesterday and did nothing but confuse a few sales guys. Also, I'm looking in the insecticide dept., correct?

 

[tcmfish]

Home Depot. Yes, insecticide department, usually right by the garden department but inside.

Lowes or home depot...only thing that has not been happy for me was a sunset monti and a monti pawl after multiple dippings when I was fighting monti nudis, everything else tolerated dips well.

 

[dowtish]

I dipped hawkins enchinata and A. granulosa in it, and they have been happy ever since

I can't seem to find the stuff with out the germ control. Been to all the big stores and no such luck?
