First off your article looked great. I'm not too sure that Lugol's, the usual iodine dip, will kill most parasites. Some of the little buggers that infect coral are just as hardy and the coral themselves. Wiping them out can also wipe out your coral specimen. I still suggest that coral be QT'ed just like a fish.
Besides Lugols what else should I use prior to QT? Is there one dip that will get them all (besides the ones that cannot be killed)?
