Seachem Reef Dip 250 ml

• Coral disinfectant.
• Elemental iodine complex, disinfects corals.
• Good for use before introducing new corals.

Reef Dip contains elemental iodine complexed to a protective slime coat for safely and gently disinfecting corals. It is effective against bacteria, fungus, and protozoans. It may be used prophylactically (without evidence of disease) or to remedy diseased specimens. It is safe to use with both stony and soft corals. It is also safe for anemones and polyps.

Reef Dip provides a protective slime coat complex that covers the coral, holding the iodine in contact with the infected site for extended periods of time. In addition, the slime coat prevents infection from re-entering the site.

Compatibility

Stony corals, soft corals, anemones and polyps. Use it in a separate container — never in the display tank.

Not recommended for Tridacna clams except in very dilute solution and at your own risk. Take any commensal crabs or shrimp off the coral first. It has no effect on hydroids, and it will not help with temperature-related bleaching.

Dosage & Directions

Add 5–10 mL (one to two capfuls) to 4 L of aquarium water in a separate container and immerse the coral for 15–30 minutes depending on severity. In bad cases the dose may be doubled, and the concentrate can be dabbed straight onto a visible lesion before dipping.

Watch the animal throughout. Heavy sliming or any other adverse reaction means cut the dip short.

Pack Size

Buy the size you will get through in a reasonable time and keep the bottle closed, cool and out of direct sun. A part-used bottle that has stood open for a year is poorer value than a small fresh one whatever it cost per millilitre.

Freshness & Storage
