Over the last couple of weeks I have acquired a small frag collection from various sources. I did not dip any of them (lesson learned) and noticed that there is about 3 or 4 different types of bugs living in my rack. I positively identified nudibranch infestation on the Spngodes Montipora as well as little black bugs that move like water flees. I’m going to do a potassium permanganate dip on the mintipora and zoas because they are known to handle it. For the rest I have seachem reef dip. It says on the bottle it can be safely used at double strength. From my list of frags, is there any that might not handle a double dose well? Should I just do the normal dose first to see if it does the job? Is there a more effective treatment I can use?

50mg/L Potassium Permanganate dip 30 min
-Spongodes Montipora
-Cherry Tree Montipora
Asst. Zoas
-Rainbow interstellar
-Armor of God
-Utter Chaos
-Gorilla Nipples
