I too am guilty of just adding frags and colonies without dipping.I have about 40 acros,frags and colonies combined.I noticed that my tri color valida was turning white on the base,and spreading up the branches quickly.Took the bone cutters out,and chopped up a 6 inch colony,yup aefw
Did about 2 hrs reading on RC and decided to go with a members plan of attach.Using tmpcc and fluke tabs.Got water and salt mixed up,a rubbermaid tub ready for the weekend.You need to remove ALL acros,clean all the eggs off,dip and quarantine for at least a month.You will need to redip the corals every week in the quarantine,to kill hatching eggs.The egg clusters are a yellowish brown,and the aefw are HUGE compared to the normal harmless ones.Very light colored compared to the normal ones,if you blow them off,your fish will gobble them up.Here's what happened in less than a month...it going to really suck !! but i have everything to lose...............lesson hard learned. Tri color is bottom corner right
same coral
