I am just curious how does everyone dip and acclimate corals. What solution do you use for the diff types of corals? For the people with LED's how do you acclimate the corals to the light?

However I now use Bayer insecticide for pretty much everything. In the past I've found coral Rx and some of the other dips to be harsh on smooth skin acros.

Not used Coral Rx but Ive also used TLF Revive (great results). Switched to Bayers due to reviews and price (so far so good).

Dont use LEDs so cant comment on that.
