Freshwater dips

[Anonymous]

Just curious what corals you can and can't do freshwater dips on.

Mostly, (for the immediate moment) I want to know if its safe to dip zoanthids, but if anyone knows of a resource that lists what corals (soft, hard, whatever) are safe and what aren't it'd be much appreciated!

I have done it on several soft corals, leathers for sure. Zooanthids should be fine and so should most sinularias. I think the problem is more with dipping acros or LPS like euphylia but I think LPS like blastomusa may be ok.

Thanks Ben. - I'll try to be more behaved the next time I'm in your neighborhood.

How long should you dip the corals? Seems like I read 10 to 15 minutes somewhere. Anything else to know before I try this myself?

I've left zoos in a freshwater dip for about 10 minutes and they were fine. (nudi problem)
