It all depends on the type of coral.Zoas I will do a freshwater dip and softies and ill do an iodine dip.Acros I give more of a soak in interceptor and iodine for six hours.

You soak Acro's in pure interceptor and iodine or with a batch of tank water?

I dip acros in TMPCC, FWE, and Revive and then place them in QT. When the QT is full, I do two 8 to 10 hour interceptor treatments a couple days apart.

What would be the purpose of "dipping" the corals? I don't see any good reason to do that prophylactically. That's sort of like prophylactic chemotherapy, y'know
