I don't know about the number of drops. I can't remember how concentrated tincture is. I would soak it for 10 minutes, rinse it in some tank water, and place it back in the tank. Careful handling it because the tissue is delicate. _________ Kris

I`m gonna do my best, what about lighting? Should I just leave them on, as far as the MH? | |

also for feeding I would actualy recomend somthing a lot smaller than chopped shrimp like come fresh hatched live brine shrimp or maby even some cyclopease
the chopped shrimp may have been simply too large for the coral
do you have pics of this guy might help us diagnose it better | |

Well i`m about to do the dip now, wish me luck. Like I said, this coral was sick to begin with. Both mouths are wide open, gapeing! The one side still has alot of color to it, the other side has some here and there. All I can do is try and save it the best I can. I`ll also post some pics later after the dip but its looking pretty bad. Wish me LUCK! | |

Salinity is 1.026. I got it maybe a week or so ago, wasnt looking that good but I got it for free after buying some other corals of someone tearing down their tank. Not sure how long they had it but I do know they didnt have enough lighting thats for sure!
Well, the dips over, time to place it back in and see what happens. Hope it helps!!!!!!
Thanks again to everyone that replied!!!! | |
