limited experience w/lugo's here.. I've inquired a bit about its use on other threads, but didnt see many replies. ( then again im a lazy bastage and never look too deep)
I used it on some zoa's but just went by the seat of my pants w/the dosage.
what do you plan on dipping?

I like ReVive.
Aslo tropical marine Pro Coral Cure is a good one.

I've used Coral RX for a while now, and it seems to work well enough.

None of those are a cure-all solution. However if I was to pick just one, I've had good luck with Revive.
The there different types of corals you listed all have different QT and treatment suggestions. Check the applicable subforums here. Zoa's for example use a a freshwater dip commonly. LPS a general dip like Revive works well. SPS Revive also works well, but need a possibly longer QT process along with potentially interceptor and/or fluke for RB/AEFW treatments.
I like the Coral RX. I dont think it as harsh as the Lugols to the corals.

I've been using Revive for about 3 years now and have been very happy with it. Never used Coral RX and use the lugols when I frag corals.
