Coral Dip Guide

[MissMolly]

I dip a general dip or Bayer for all corals. If they are lps I also dip iodine or if the coral looks like it might be stressed or have a bacterial issue. If there is algae on the plug I will also dip peroxide or squirt peroxide on the plug.

Hi! Do you complete all three steps on the same day? If yes, do you think a shipped lps can take it also?

I read a guide about dipping with H202, and I'm scratching my head at how they ask you to wear goggles, gloves, mask, and be in a ventilated area. For peroxide?

Well, since no one else answered in 1-1/3 years, I'll take a stab. I'm guessing it's as a precaution against palytoxin poisoning from Zoas and other Palys.
