Hi guys,

I've read some links about Revive coral cleaner. I've read some threads that claim this kills AEFW. Has anyone used this product and had great results with it?

I have been messing around with this stuff - it contains pine oil, a phenolic disinfectant which works as an endocrine disruptor. This is why it smells like pine-sol. Some interesting/boring reading:

From my basic observations, it will make monti eating flatworms release, and consequently die, but is ineffective on the eggs. I dipped some corals in Lugols and Revive, and will observe over the next week how they respond (color, ect..)
I do not have any experince with AEFW (knock on wood), and hopefully will never have any data regarding that for you guys :)
