your doing gods work man )))
Haha, I definitely can't claim that, but I do appreciate the sentiment! It's incredibly rewarding, but all the support makes it double!
Hi,
I have a pretty blasto that's in bad shape from day 1 from the vendor. Colors are still there, mouth still opening/closing, but the flesh is withdrawn all the way in.
You mentioned a 5 second peroxide dip. Is that RODI/peroxide mix? If so, what's the ratio. Or, just peroxide?
Also, do you recommend the CoralRX dip right after, or wait how long?
TIA
I'm sorry to hear that you have a blasto in a rough shape, but I'm glad to hear you're trying to help it out! A mouth that is responding is a really good sign! My hydrogen peroxide dips vary, from a few seconds up to a minute, depending on the issue (NOTE: this is not for SPS!!) I use tank water with regular-strength (3%) hydrogen peroxide. My ratios vary from 10:1 to 1:1, again, based on the issue. Then, I follow up immediately with usually one or two other dips, depending on the issues. The CoralRx dip is usually the last dip. If you'd like more specific help, feel free to reach out via PM or by pointing me to your thread on the issues.
Wow! Any advice on Zoas ?
Lots - but it depends on what's going on! Zoa-eating nudi's, zoa-pox, zoa-spiders, sundial snails, bleaching, etc... are all things just off the top of my head that I've frequently seen. Unfortunately, with Furan2 gone now, I need to go look up what a replacement could be for zoa-pox.
