Dinoflagellates and coral/inverts to QT

Unfortunately, I'm going to be forced to do a reset on my current tank. Dinos have won out and I've tried everything.

I've accepted my fate, so not looking for advice with respect to beating them in my DT anymore.

I'd like to remove the inverts and coral (that have survived) and place them in QT while everything is cleaned, dried and new sand, water and rock cycle (up to 2 months realistically).

Questions:

How do I transfer coral and inverts to QT without bringing dinos with them? Will coral Rx work with the coral and inverts? Can I use hydrogen peroxide on inverts (snails, urchins and conch)? Will fresh RODI work?

I want to make sure I avoid introducing them again. I've done a lot of searches and haven't seen these questions asked.

Thanks in advance,

Adam
 
Yes, use Hydrogen Peroxide, but a quick dip, like in and out.

When I had problems with dinos, it was due to bad lighting. Change out lighting, all gone. But that is my systems. It has happened the same way, repeatable, on both tanks.
 
Don't give up hope please try my treatment Kordon ice attack it saved my tank you can find more info on the last pages of the Dinoflagellets post in the reef chemistry section!
