Hi folks,

I plan to add my first few SPS frags in the next week or so, and have the following items at my disposal:

(1) Salifert Flatworm eXit
(2) Tropic Marin Pro-Coral Cure
(3) Interceptor for Large Dogs
(4) Levasole Boluses

I plan to add a few Acro and Monti frags, and want to get as close to 100% elimination of Red Bugs, AEFW, Nudis, etc... I do have a 20g QT tank as well. What is the best way to dip the corals with the above, and what is an overall good acclimation process?

I'm very grateful for any advice! :)

Thanks,
L3

dip for 4-6 hrs with interceptor subsequently TMPCC and then qt if possible. I dont have a qt so thats all i do so far in this setup all is well.
There's about twenty ways to skin acat, thats what i do. With qt tank is easier. dip them then cheked them for a couple of wks and then strt them at the bottom of your tank progressively moving then to your desired spot(hope this helps):smokin:

QT for 2 weeks, TMPCC dip on entry and exit, Interceptor bath after one week in QT.

I wouldn't touch levamisole with a 10 foot pole, too many corals die.

So you just create a bath out of purely interceptor or pro coral cure and leave your coral in the bath for the times you've listed?No diluting with tank water or anything like that?
