What do you guys reccomend for accilmating new zoas. Should I use iodine or just acclimate normally. When I say normally I mean drip acclimating, is that how some of you do it?
Also my calcium is 380-400 ppm and my magnesium is around 1180 ppm do you think these are too low? and will zoas be okay?
I would appreciate any suggestions.
 
Ohh yeah my lighting is a coralife pc with 2 65 watt actinic and 2 65 watt 10 k . I also have a regular flouresent fixture with 2 20 watt 20 k bulbs. Do you think this is enough and should I place my new zoas high tin the tank. The tank is a standard 90 gallon around 20 inches deep.
 
I dip all of my zoas before they enter the tank. I don't worry too much about drip acclimating. There are several threads in this forum on the subject, "Zoo Dip Update" in particular.
 
i dip all my zoos in flat worm exit and iodine for 10 mins before introducing them into my tank...been burned before on zoo eating nudis..
