shormovas Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Hey I wanted to see if anyone was using this product for a reef aquarium. The information on the website states that the product is not reef safe. My question is can i still dip my new fish in it before introducing them to the tank? Will it harm my corals? I figure that by saying it is not reef safe means you can not use the product directly into the aquarium but what about just dipping the fish in before putting them in the tank? Quote Link to comment
shormovas Posted August 9, 2016 Author Share Posted August 9, 2016 Also if it is not possible to use Hydroplex is there any other options? A Quarantine Tank is really not something I am looking into due to space and money. Quote Link to comment
seabass Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 http://www.rubyreef.net/hydroplex/ Yes, you would not dose it into a reef tank, but could use it as a dip. I normally don't net fish, but that would allow you to get the fish into your tank without introducing the dip solution. 1 Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I didn't know ppl dip their fish? I would say dipping is fine, just don't get the product in your tank. Quote Link to comment
shormovas Posted August 9, 2016 Author Share Posted August 9, 2016 Awesome thanks guys....ill most likely dip the fish in the solution and then re dip it into clean water to eliminate any of the solution before putting it in the tank. Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Good idea, just watch for any stress on the fish Quote Link to comment
