What does everyone use to dip their corals? Freshwater, furan, etc?

Freshwater for zoas

TM Pro Cure for everything else.

Some people use Coral Revive but it is pretty harsh on corals.

How long do you dip them for?

I did Kent Tech-D. Not sure if it really does anything, but it doesn't seem to hurt my soft corals.

My experience is the exact opposite. Revive I find very mild.

just remember not to dip soft skinned sps in revive. they're a bit too sensitive from what i hear.

I also find Revive more mild then TMPCC.
Revive also smells better, and doesn't stain like TMPCC if it spills

Coral RX for me with and additional interceptor dip for acros.

Soft skinned sps are sensitive in any dip. But I still dip no matter what. It took 2 tries for an ORA Hawkins, but overall, I have had less fatalities using Revive vs. TMPCC.
