Reefkid88 Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 Dude.. I have a Acan frag that honestly has 100 bubbles on it lol. I scrapped a drag earlier that has maybe 40-50 lol. I popped a few while I was scraping it off,but hopefully the peroxide dip helps. 1 Quote Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Don't you scrape out of the water, then Dip in coral rx or revive and put back Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 I took the frag out,dipped for about 45 seconds-1 minute,scrapped,dipped again for about 30 seconds to a another minute and then dipped in another tub with freshly mixed water then back in the tank. Sounds extreme but that's how I does it. 1 Quote Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Some proper dipping brotha! Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 I did all my Acan's,which is about 15 lol and believe me it took for foreverrrrrr lol. I'm glad to hear my method wasn't outfu*kingrageous lol. Some Acan's have been receeded for weeks,not losing tissue,but like pissed the hell off,no idea why. While some are fluffy and happy as a pig in shit... Any suggestions ? Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 I'm officially changing the name of this tank,to Frag City lol. Did a semi-mass cleaning. Took the 2 right side frag racks out,scrubbed and peroxide dipped them,and same to about 15 frags. This weekend I'll do the left side. Here's a "top down" shot: Anyone know what these are ? I've been wondering for months now: I love these Zoa's,my original frag melted,but I got this frag for $5 lol: 1 Quote Link to comment

Lost 3 of the acans and basically all my chalices. Pretty pissed cause those were te piece of the ocean ones. I guess the steals on zoas I've been getting have made up for the acans. Both that got exposed to air,are still alive but one is just not looking hot at all. The other one I moved to the DT,is making a come back,I try feeding it as much as possible to get the tissue to get back to growing. I wonder what's going on,have you checked the acans for any pests ?! Maybe something is bothering it. Quote Link to comment

HarryPotter Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Man it's dead up in hurrrrrrr !!!!! Does any dip kill bubble algae? Or no? Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 Does any dip kill bubble algae? Or no? A quick peroxide dip (30-45 seconds) with 50/50 peroxide and tank water worked for me. As of now,that's the only dip I know works. 1 Quote Link to comment
