TheKleinReef Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 It's not, revive is not a good dip for smooth skin acros period. Look at the SPS forum over on RC, lots of experience collected with lots of hard core SPS keepers over the years. Just about everyone has to deal with AEFW at some point, even the zealots who preach dip and QT acros (like that's effing reasonable). If you are in the states and can get Bayer then it is by far the safest and most effective dip for acros. Acros suck, care of acros sucks. That's why we like them. Thank you, can I have another? I don't know what to say. Cause I've used it for years with no problems. A sensitive coral + AEFW + dip = not a happy coral. I'm not gonna change my dip to save a coral that's already a goner. Maybe if things get worse, but as of right now, revive is working aside from the Hawkins. It's killing my worms, so I'm gonna keep using it. If it didn't work, that's an entirely different story.

Arce Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Just realized i was dosing a lot more bayer than i thought, just in case you switch. I was doing like 5ml to 100ml. 10 minutes. Quote Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 Anyone know if a melanarus and coris will play nice together? A lfs said they're getting one in either today or tomorrow. Quote Link to comment
Arce Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Anyone know if a melanarus and coris will play nice together? A lfs said they're getting one in either today or tomorrow. I think they should be fine. 1 Quote Link to comment

Arce Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 What's better than 1 predator.? 2. Hahah Lol yep. Hows everything doing Quote Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 Lol yep. Hows everything doing Good. Besides the Hawkins. Parameters are all good. Tank looks cleaner. No bugs on an LPS. I can't find any on the sps either, and I check every couple minutes. The only patch of chewed flesh was on that piece of Kat, but there's likely some in the back of the coral which I can get a good visual on. I took the stag out and dipped, nothing came off. There's a few mushrooms that I can't get out either that have some FW on them. 2 Quote Link to comment

TheKleinReef Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 LFS just got a Cometus wrasse (adorned wrasse) in today, should I add that fish to my arsenal, or wait for a melanarus? Quote Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 LFS just got a Cometus wrasse (adorned wrasse) in today, should I add that fish to my arsenal, or wait for a melanarus? Will they get in a melanarus before you leave? Quote Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 Will they get in a melanarus before you leave? I'm not sure. If i called BTR, they'd get me one for sure. I might just do that. Quote Link to comment
