FYI on those people who drip or do the cup in cup out thing.............
any ammonia present doesnt become toxic until you open the bag, offgas teh CO2 and introduce oxygen...... So if you for some reason have a frag in especially nasty water and choose to drip acclimate it.............you are certainly not helping its chances.....you are torturing it and burning i with ammonia. Drip acclimation really only makes sense if the salinity is really low in the shipping water to avoid osmotic shock....other than that get those poor animals out of that water they shipped in.........
just soemthing to think about
any waste the coral produces incuding slime can produce ammonia.
if the water is clean and perfect then it of course doesnt matter so much....but if you receive a coral in nasty water the last thing you want to do is drip acclimate it
slime acclimation......after floating to temp instead of dropping immediately in the tank....I let it sit out in open air to slime up a bit in open air for a minute or two........let it protect itself and give the coral soem time to adjust on its own
