Just gently pick the bubble algae off without busting them open. Easier than thought.

Just ordered mine :) Since I am upgrading, this is going to be my best friend ;)

That's exactly y I ordered too

Some have you should have already received your RPS. Remember folks, you need to use this stuff with caution as it’s not your regular dip!

Lets recap the instructions...

- Mix 4ml of RPS with 16oz of saltwater
- Dip for 15 minutes
- Do NOT add this directly to your tank
- After dipping you MUST rinse coral in untreated saltwater BEFORE placing in quarantine
- Use extreme caution when dipping soft corals and leathers.

Important note on quarantine: You must run carbon ensuring RPS is fully absorbed before placing coral in main display.

Happy dipping!

Ray.
Is qt nessacery. I'm doin a transfer and want to dip acros to rid OD collinista snails. Would a bath in clean sw be sufficient to remove residue or does the dip inhibit the tissue of the coral.

You need to run it for a few hours with carbon to make 100% sure it is all gone. If you do not you will rist killing some inverts in you main display.

This is what RPS wrote...

One should not place corals back into the display tank after dipping. They should be placed in a quarantine tank while running carbon. Its hard to say for how long as the size and volume would dictate the time. There is reports that people have rinsed corals thoroughly well and placed them back into the display without any ill effects. We don't recommend placing them back into the display tank right after dipping.
To try and best answer your question without knowing volume or quantity. A 10 gallon tank with flow and a hang on back filter removes residual quickly. If you had a 250gl an hour hang on back filter in one hour the residue would pass by the carbon 25 times in one hour, I would consider this sufficient.

Sounds good. The transfer would take a couple hours so I'm sure that all residue will be gone

Thanks

How many of you felt dizzy after getting the pungent smell from this thing? I was almost knocked over smelling the strong smell! The smell is enough to kill all the pests (given that they can smell :lol:)

RPS has arrived, contact me for pick up please.

Zombie thread
 

Bring out your dead !

Thread revival.
I found an old (but full) bottle of this "RPS AllOut" while tracking down the 'PineSol' stench from an random aquarium storage box. I can't seem to find any definitive thread after 2013. I'm assuming one of the following:

1) Everyone died after using this (and thus the dearth of posts).
2) It worked so well that everyone wants to keep the secret to themselves.
3) No one wants to admit falling for yet another reef aquarium snake oil scam.

Maybe this should be a poll.
I think I'll wait to hear some feedback and use my good old Revive.
In the meanwhile I'll store it in my fridge next to the crappy beer I feed the in-laws when they visit.

Thoughts?

It's a great product for acros. But I would not dip deep water acros in it

Thanks Nick

Maybe I'll try it when I get my carbon reactor back on line.

I use Bayer and 24 hour QT with carbon afterwards. Fwiw, I dip all types of Acros this way. No special "deepwater" treatment.
