What are you dipping them for slavearm? AEFW's???

Just precautionary. I don't trust other peoples tanks. So I do a pretty heavy inspection with a magnifying glass and then do a tmpcc dip. Most of the time I just kill a few copepods, but I would rather do that, than introduce a pest into my system.

Sorry Slavearm, I actually ment what pest were you aiming to kill with the TMPCC. I agree though, people have bad stuff and they don't even know it. You definately have to treat incoming pieces.

I'm really getting tired of treating new corals with Pro cure. It fades the colors horribly and in some cases causes RTN. I think I'm going to go back to using seachem reef dip

If your using the squirter, that could be it. I use the squirter once and cooked a frag. Not sure how much pro cure I put in but it was a lot more than 1ml. Now I us one of those pipette things from a test kit and haven't had an issue.
