Coral Dipping
 

What does everyone do and use to dip their coral?

Coral rx I believe it is called

Revive and interceptor

Same, although I'll forgo the interceptor if I get a clean inspection under microscope.

coral rx/pro,flatworm exit,revive,h202

thats my weapons for new corals:P

Where's everyone getting Coral RX in Canada?

I bought some one shots at J&L because that's all they had. I thought they were supposed to smell like Pine Sol, these had almost no smell.

yes they do smell like pine sol if it doesnt have a potent smell i would be weary on it for sure.

im not sure about in bc but if you need it we have some at concept aquatics for sure , pm me if your stuck:)

I bought a bottle of coral rx at ocean aquatics in delta. Not entirely sure if they are still there though

Glue?? What kind of glue and how??

Usually gel super glue does the trick

OK glue, how? Just put a little glue on it, then what?

Lol, that's just for aiptasia. If you buy a frag with aiptasia on it, you can just cover that part with the gel crazy glue. (its not for dipping) ;)

For dipping I take the same route as reefwars, in fact I believe is "borrowed" (stole) this method from him.

Coral rx, flatworm exit, h202 etc. No pests ever in my tank.

lol ya I know just for aiptasia, so just glue over them then put into tank with the glue on them?

Yeah it keeps them from getting light, oxygen, flow, food, etc thus killing them with out giving them a chance to reproduce

aptasia x works AMAZING!!!!

Where can you get coral dips in the Edmonton area?

I got mine from blue world aquatic

Could you explain this process a little. Do you dip all new corals in a mix of all those things? Dip corals in each one but separate containers? Or just dip in certain ones depending on what you see after inspecting? Sorry if this is a stupid question but I am new and seem to have a lot of them.

Revive and interceptor!!! :D

Getto method: Plunge the attached rock of the frag into lemon juice. Works like charm :mrgreen:

I think lemon juice practically kills everything (including the bacteria) in the rock. But I am always careful not to expose that to the coral. :razz:

I got mine at Aquarium Central.
