Cipro for H malu

[jmp998]

I am considering a Heteractis malu, mostly due to the smaller size but also because these seem to ship better than other host anemones. Is cipro treatment also recommended for H malu? Should I treat as soon as it arrives or only if it deflates or otherwise appears ill?

I would also appreciate any suggestions for a good (healthy) source, otherwise I will watch liveaquaria for one to pop up.

I've done it once because of a pedal disk injuryand it worked fine: http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2501004
The anemone is still alive.

Though I may have made a mistake by adding untreated malus and may have to take them all out and treat again. They always inflate, deflate and ball up.

The other option may be that they don't like the Kessil LEDs too much... they seemed to like the more yellow Daylight bulbs. I might try a MarsAqua before treating again - my last purple gig seems to love that light despite (or because) it causing some ugly smear algae to grow.
