dip for the recommended doseage on the label, then 15 min freshwater dip.
***edit*** oh yeah, I NEVER put what the coral is attached to in my tanks. Dipping doesnt kill eggs. It looks like you're infested with them. So its going to be a few week process to remove them all. There is probally more eggs all over your tank. | |

There is probally more eggs all over your tank. | After the iodine dip and me picking at it with toothbrushs and tweaser I see no more adults on it at this time. I guess I will just have to set a side some time each night to look and pick. I left the corals on the plugs because I don't know where I want to put them yet. I am glad it is still on a plug not because I take it out to clean and pick on it so nothing falls off in the tank. There has to be something these things don't like.....the damn little phuckheads....:mad:
I am going to have to set up a quaratine tank but I have no extra light to put there. Will have to make something do. | |
