Dipping

[vader88]

I'm going to be receiving quite a bit of zoo frags next week and I want to dip them, I've never done this before but want to get in the habit of this with all my new additions. What is recommend for dipping zoo's to try and cover the widest range of possible ailments. These are the products I already have.

Lugols
Reef Dip
Prazi-Pro
Metro RX


Thanks

I think its slightly diff depending on product. Do they not have.instructions, including duration and dosage on the bottles?

Prazi is for fish, so you can cross that one rights off. Lugols is an iodine based dip that is good for freshly fragged zoas. Not quite sure what the reef dip or Metro RX are, I assume they are general dips which is where I would start. I would pickup some revive or Coral RX, as they seem to be the two most popular and beneficial dips out there.

I hear you can also use flatworm exit as a dip to kill possible nudibranchs

Forgot this one, and it should be in every zoa keepers emergency zip. Also great for new zoas as they will fry them.

IMO the safest dip for corals is Revive Coral Cleaner.

a coralRX dip for ten minutes and then flatworm exit for twenty minutes will kill off most critters.
