You definitely shouldn't rinse coral in RO water.

I see that you put the coral back in your tank without scraping the eggs off. You need to get those eggs off the coral as the dip will not kill them. You really are better off just fragging those sections off and throwing them in the garbage.

Honestly, the frag in the photo you posted looks just about finished. If I were in your situation, I think I would toss all my Acros. Wait a couple months and start over. You have a serious infestation going on right now.

I second that, wait 6ish weeks and see what locals have for frags.

I disagree. You can totally save that coral by fragging and Bayer dip.
 
I'm sure he can save some of them. Only question is it worth all the trouble. That coral looks extremely close to death if not dead already. I was just telling him what I would do if I were in his position.
