i'd like to add a six line to also keep spaghetti worms in check too but i have a magenta dottyback in there that keeps killing them. Gotta catch him out first. Off the get go i am going to try a dipping approach and try to get the dottyback out and into one of my other tanks so i can get a sixline. Basically make it as hard as possible for these damn things to live in the tank. If i see more spreading then i will have to go the QT route.

I would like to avoid tossing the affected peices, a tri color nana(super sweet), a dark purple valida that grows like a beast, and a nice deepwater white and purple. They are all some of my favorites, i'd like to save them if at all possible.

I have not seen the worms themselves, from what i understand it is next to impossible to see them unless they are off the coral in a white bowl. But the white spots i am seeing on the coral definately matches pictures i have seen of other people's issues.

What dips can people reccomend that will be both effective but not stress the acros too much.
