I got lugols iodine and dipped my cup coral. Since I swapped tanks it hasn’t been happy. Had dying tissue in the center. Polyps not fully extending.

prior to this tissue issue, I had moved it up to a higher par (less than 150) and higher flow. It was when it was sitting there I noticed the the tissue problem. So I moved it back to a lower flow area. After a day or two there I noticed the tissue still had issues. So today I preformed a 15 minute dip (6 cups of water 12 drops (about of lugols) during the first 5 minutes I used a baster to blow off dead tissue and remove anything that may have been bothering it. I then transferred it to another bowl with lugols and let it sit for an additional 10 minutes.

I removed and placed back in tank without rinsing

Sounds about right for dipping. I never rinse either. What little is left is not much at all.

I have done zoas daily, sps daily, and cups daily. Just use old tank water and float in sump in a Tupperware container with the lid on it. It maintains temp and the only variable is the lugols in the water.
