Does anyone know of a RC thread that details people success/failures with Betadine? How much does Betadine stress out the corals?
There was mention in the massive Melev thread on RC about AEFW that the betadine stressed the corals out alot and caused significant browning. But I did not experience that when I did my dip. Stress was noticable yes and they did drop some color. But a day after, they looked happy as ever, although color was not 100%. I did not loose a single thing due to the dip.

inspected the affected corals when i got home after work today and things are looking good. Many of the bite marks have filled in quite quickly. Will be doing a followup dip early next week, to see what i can knock off then.
