Just wondering what type of Bayer at Home Depot do I buy?
And what is the concentration per gal on saltwater do I use?
Thanks

I mix it at 15 to 20ml per 250ml of tank water. I also leave coral in for 15 minutes.
 
I mix it at about 10 ML per liter or quart = 40 per gallon. I generally do 15 minutes as well.
 
Why not the bayer with germ killer? It mixes up clear so you can see whats coming off the coral.

I had great results with both, and agree the germ killer was best for watching the little bastards squirm in the solution under light in the dip container.
 
You both are diluting heavily ...

Personally, being one of the first to try, adopt and progress/recommend the practice, I typically utilize a 10ml per cup (237ml or .24l) mixture solution ... So, therefore, the typical ratio per gallon is roughly ~42ml Bayer Advanced Insecticide ... Knowledgeably diluting further for the known species sensitive to particular dips.

As to why the chemical ingredients are working for this/our particular implementation, for those who are unaware and just blindly use it because it knowingly works, I've written multiple posts regarding the specifics.
 
I remember reading another post depends on where in NY for it is regulated not for sale. You can order it online from walmart or if memory serves me right home depot in Queens had it.
