My experience has also been positive. I used it on several occasions where incoming frag had aefw, I use it full strength but only for 10 minutes and inspect the water under strong lighting. also i swoosh it around in the dip using tweezers and see what kind of pests comes off it. My observation has showed that rps kills the worm quick even when I place it back into fresh salt water it does not revive itself, but with that said I dont want you to think its the solution to aefw. I have discarded most of the frags that carried aefw even after the dip. Some time it's just not worth the 20-30 or even 50 dollar frag to infest the entire system.

One other thing to mention is the rinse after the dip as it is imperative that you do it well specially in a smaller system. On lps and leathers you should also use carbon to absorb what ever is left in the rinsed water and repeat the rinse for a second time.
