Why corals need to be dipped

There are no viable methods for removing specific opportunistic dwellers from an established reef aquarium. 

While not all of the incidental hitchhikers are necessarily bad for an artificial reef, some of them quickly become unwelcome guests and therefore it is highly recommended to go with a “better safe than sorry” policy and try to prevent them from getting in. If, however they are already in the system, affected corals and rocks will need to be removed and dealt with one at a time. 

Carefully inspecting corals should be part of the regular husbandry routine for a reef aquarium so that any signs of soft tissue damage or discoloration can be identified and investigated as soon as possible. Early detection of the presence of hitchhikers is the most effective way of preventing an uncontrolled outbreak that can potentially harm the entire reef.

Notes for use

  • Pour DipX into an empty container. Verify the container is both clean and dry beforehand.
  • Use 10 ml of DipX (diluted 1:100 with aquarium water) to prepare 1L/0.26gallons of bath mix.
  • Place your new coral or live rock in the container for no more than 15 minutes.
  • Bath solution can be reused for up to four batches of corals/rocks but should be discarded within 2 hours from preparation.
