Thanks everyone for the support. After 24hrs, most of the corals are looking fine, but I can tell that the corals are starting to lose some of their health after 3 consecutive weeks of dipping. I am waiting for my mix up water to heat up to temperature and I thing I will do a water change today to see if that helps at all.
Now that the weather is getting a little cooler, I noticed that the water in the rubbermaid trays was starting to cool down after 30 mins. I hope that the cool down plus the dipping will not be my downfall. I still have 3 more weeks planned in QT.

Thanks Jay. I did notice a couple more pieces peeling this morning. I have heard that week 4 is a tough week. A few people decided to put the corals back after week 4. Its really tough to lose 6-8 inch colonies, but at this point, I know that I have a lot of friends in the hobby that will help me replace my collection if need be

Wow Mark. I don't even know where to begin. I guess all I can really say is if you ever need any replacement corals, I would gladly offer up my humble little collection. I can even bring them up there with me on the plane

I did have a fish R.I.P. last week. My diamond spot goby that has been with me for over 3.5 years finally passed
Sorry to hear about your loss. I also lost a diamond goby yesterday that strangely died the day after he was added to the tank (added two bartlett's anthias from the same tank at the same time that are doing well, so I'm not really sure what happened).
As for the corals, hang in there. I think you might increase the survival rate by sticking with revive only dips and dipping for just a few minutes.

Mark sorry about your coral and fish lost... its really tough Im sure and I give you a lot of credit with sticking with the plan... Well if you needed anything as well just let me know..
Thanks Jimdog
Thanks Steve
I am trying to hang in there. Everytime I walk into the garage to look at the tank, I get that moment right before I open the door when I think "what if.....". I am just glad that the process has started and its almost half over.

Me too.... I've been on wait list like forever
Basically I just upgraded two modded 6025 with these. I now have two 6105's, two 6055's and two vortechs; That should do for now
