Can you dip Acans in hydrogen peroxide? If so, what's the ratio of saltwater water and h202? And for how long to dip.

I did a test with a small acan. Dipped for 3 min with 50/50, and it's filled with bubbles. Not sure if this is good or not.

These Acans have bryopsis and I would like to try to get rid of it before entering it into my tank.

4parts tank water, 1 part h2o2
5 minutes
they will bubble up but that is normal, also works for nudibranch and flatworms
 
i tend to do a 1:1 mix of regular h2o2 (3% from the store) and 5 minutes or so then a quick dip and stir in tank water to rinse anything off that didn't come off in the mix then into the tank.
