Hey guys, I got a couple questions for you. A little while ago I was saving some corals from a crashing system and the person gave them to me. I have a coral qt tank so out came all the corals and coral covered rocks and into my qt tank. I have kept them in qt for over 76 days fishless, so parasites aren't a concern. Most corals are going well and I'd like to place them into my display so they can grow out and propegate.
The concern I have is how do I keep the good stuff and being sure I have no aiptasia, majanos, or other pests/nuossance algeas. I have done a couple of peroxide dips on the hardier corals that can handle it.
I have a large leather colony, a pinkish cauliflower with some palys and zoas on it that I have seen a couple aiptasia on. Aside from manually cleaning this peice, is there anything I can do? This also applies to a beautiful piece that has a super colorful rock anemone and huge feather duster. The last peice is a rock that has some ricordea on it. The other frags I can dip and place on new plugs as normal.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
