Bayer dip for all or just SPS?

[Fishmommy]

I plan to dip all my new corals in Coral Rx and QT.
I had also planned on dipping Bayer for red bugs. Is that just for SPS or should I Bayer LPS and Softies too?

Thanks

I am not sure LPS and softies are infested by red bugs. Many have dipped them in Bayer and were just fine. Not sure what for.

Mainly for acropora species in general but better safe than sorry when it comes to red bugs!

So, does Bayer dip kill any other pests such as aiptasia? Or just red bugs?

It won't kill aiptasia. You have to inject directly into the mouth of the aiptasia with boiling water, a kalk slurry or a commercially available aiptasia killer like Joe's Juice or Aiptasia X.

I've used Bayer on Zoas and Mushrooms.
