Has this been used internationally previously (says "now in America")?

I would love to hear some experiences or reports of effectiveness. I am all about all-natural products, but unfortunately, when dealing with pests, all natural is often code for "not as effective".

Hi,

We've been using our formula here at our coral farm in Germany for at least 1 year. Every shipment we receive is dipped in our product. The natural ingredients we use are gentle on the coral's tissue and has been fully effective against treating unwanted pests. The first shipment of THE DIP is expected to arrive in the US within the next 2 weeks.

This is exciting. Do you have any reports on how effective the dip is against AEFW eggs ?
There's quite a lot products like Bayers that can kill AEFW adults but nothing that touches the eggs .

Regards,
Abhishek

I've reached out to FM to see what they have to day about the eggs.

Hi,
A solution to AEFW eggs has not yet been found. These eggs are specially protected and do not allow any non-aggressive dips to take its effects on it. If specific chemicals are used, you may be able to kill the eggs, but you also expose the coral to extreme stress. We've searched for a solution to this, but have not yet found a suitable formula.
