New Coral Dip

[BrianneG]

Looking at getting some new coral for my tank. These will be my first corals. What do you all dip your corals in?

KCl

Hydrogen peroxide and a paintbrush, apply to any algae you see on the frag plug

Hold that plug stem in your hand out of the water and brush pure 3% hydrogen peroxide on the algae and then let it sit for a min then place in tank

For pests I use coral rx + lugols

Depends on the coral type. Soft stuff, zoas and Lps Revive. Sps I use Potassium Chloride aka KCl. Not as harsh as other dips.

KCl..2 tablespoons per gallon of dip. 10-15 minutes.

Removing the plugs is the best practice IMO.
