Hi all,
It’s been almost two years it feels like since if purchased new coral, but tomorrow is the big day for delivery and I was trying to refresh my memory on what to do really.
I have 9 frags coming in from California and was planning on using a bayer dip ( still had my big bottle from last dipping session). I was going to do them somewhat individually within little disposable plastic cups rather than a large collection in a 5 gallon bucket.. can’t find my dipping pump :/
I was thinking it would go a little like this
Float the bags in my sump for 15-20 mins to get temp closer
Open all frags into 5 gallon bucket and drip acclimate for a little bit
Fill 3 cups for each frag. All with tank water
First cup would be for the frag plus some bayer, next would be for a rinse and then the final would be another rinse before putting them into my tank.
Now the next question I was going to ask would be how much bayer for the little cup? They seem like the plastic rocks glasses that probabaly hold around 8 oz of water if not maybe more.
Thanks!
