Where do you Guys get bayers??

Home Hardware carries Bayer products, although I don't know which one others are using for coral.

Flatworm Exit, Revive, Coral RX and Lugol's Solution (Iodine) are all available at J&L.

Bayer Advanced Complete Insect Killer. You will need to pick it up in The States as far as I know.

Please don't use it in Your garden! The chemicals in it have been link to the decrease in bee populations.

A product for coral dipping came out a couple of years ago that looked to use the same active ingredients. Perhaps someone remembers the name :redface:

I bought Bayer from Amazon.ca for $17.99 with free shipping earlier this year. I just went to order another bottle, and can no longer find it listed on Amazon.ca. :(

coral pests
 
a while ago bought a zoa rock from a local lfs didn't think much about it until noticing zoas were disappearing from tank zoa rock was placed in. took out and flipped one of the rocks over there were bunch of ethreal looking nudibranchs on underside. these nuds were so fairy looking i wouldn't have hesitate to keep them going if i had infinite zoas to feed them with. long story short finished off zoas and they starved into history.

Bayer dip for 20 minutes baste a few times really well, soak in fresh salt water for about 10 minutes then add to tank. Never had any corals suffer from it, and all open up same day or next day. Definitely continuing this method from now on.
