General Goni Dipping Method

[Isaac Alves]

I’m getting some Gonipora and can’t find a direct prescription for dipping them.

I was planning on doing a 5 minute Bayer dip followed by an iodine dip (Seachem Reef Dip) for five minutes.

Thoughts?

I would dip them like any other corals

So, my method above is ok?

I wasn't sure if my tools would be ok for Gonis:
"...5 minute Bayer dip followed by an iodine dip (Seachem Reef Dip) for five minutes"

Thank you!

I have never used Bayer but my pest treatment with gonis are the same as an other corals. If that is how you dip your other corals, I don't see why it would be any different for gonis.

I personally use KCl dip.

I think so, two quick dips should be fine. I usually do one dip for a slightly longer period.

What do you think about KCI. Do you get good results in terms of standard pest removal?
