I just reread this write up on zoa dips and have a more specific question I hope someone can answer. I just discovered a (single) zoa nudi on some AoG's I was fragging. The bright red he was accumulating made him an easy spot. Since I had bought half a dozen colonies recently from the same wholesaler, I decided to pull and dip 2 other colonies that weren't opening up well. One came up clean and the other blue colony had two that are much harder to spot. I am using Coral Rx Pro and while it has made these 3 move around and show themselves, I'm not convinced it will kill the adults.
I also have some Lugols kicking around and may dip at 5 drops per quart after these ones get some rest. And I have Revive that I just got back in stock. Any specific recommendations on products, order of dipping and concentrations? I am very concerned because the red one was much larger than the ones off of the blue colony, suggesting two hatches - where are the others??? I keep a 6 line in the zoa bins so hopefully it'll help keep the rest at bay. I don't see any signs of stress in the frag bin or other mother colonies but am on high alert for any closed up polyps.
