I need to know what to do thats right.

I dip most of my corals in lugol's iodine just to be safe.

Ranch dressing is for fish, not corals silly..
I use "reefchem coral dip disinfectant" when I see a problem with a coral. I use SW in my mix and double the recommended concentration. I have not dipped every coral as I have introduced it to my tank though. I have been lucky so far.
