Potassium chloride dip. Will good bacteria remain?

Hi. Anyone know if i dip live rock in potassium chloride (kcl - potassium salt) will it kill the good bacteria? Or will it remain?

I do not know how much bacteria will be killed by an ordinary dip, but the answer will depend on the time in the bath and the concentration of the KCl.

HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH BULLIES IN YOUR TANK?

I place the offender in an acclimation box for a period of time (jail).

I remove the offender entirely and reintroduce them at a later time (rehab).

I use the mirror method (a little reverse psychology).

I rearrange rock work (throw them off).

I don't tolerate bullies. Bye bye fishy!

I've never dealt with a tank bully.

Other (please explain!)
