Guest Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Yes you should try to dip all your newly bought corals before entering your main tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowtang Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Smooth skin sps like those from deep water need to be more cautious. I usually reduce the dosage or the stipulated time.Blast it with turkey blaster while dipping is a practice.

SRC Member Clement Chen Posted August 5, 2014 SRC Member Share Posted August 5, 2014 recently i bought a sps colony from AM and when i came back i dipped it in a few mins in Coral RX. Yesterday i spotted 2 crabs inside, luckily it seems to be the smooth shell type.
