It does make a really good dip for coral pests. I don't have exact measurements on how much I use, but I simply add enough to give the dip water a yellow hue. Let the corals sit for about 15 minutes and watch the little critters fall off dead.

WOW! Alright so I mixed some iodide with regular salt water so it was a little yellow. Put my xenia in for 15 minutes, put it my tank and this morning I was blown away. Its open and happy as can be! Thank you guys so much

Make sure you don't have any nuisance algae in your tank...iodine and iodide will sure help nuisance algae grow as well!
