juat some useful info .. hope this will help

all sps lovers here... ;)

Large water changes (immediately upon noticing RTN or signs of it).

By large here we mean 30 percent or more at one time

Treating the affected coral in SW to which Lugol's has been added. 10 drops of Iodine per gallon of water is used and the coral is immersed for 10 to 20 minutes

Adding Lugol's to the tank: 1 drop per 30 gallons and adding this every day for several days in row. You can do so in combination with the large water changes mentioned.

Direct treatment with Chloramphenicol based on the protocol developed by Craig Bingman (see later).

Cut non affected areas (frag) and remount those in epoxy and get rid of the affected one. Add lots of iodine or Lugol's to the tank to kill off bacteria that are there.

Dip the frags in an iodine solution (10 drops per gallon) before remounting, and do so for a few minutes at a time.
