Also it is very effective to minimize good and bad bacteria on the surface of the Coral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEspecially very resisting invasive Spionid and other worm species are going to be killed and forced out of their wormholes if correctly applied after minutes of a coral bath in the dip mix with Aquarium water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for Soft and Hard Coral, Rocks, and Aquarium equipment cleaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf used to dip Liverock, please be aware that most of the good and desired microfauna is going to be negatively affected during the dipping process, if the purpose of the Liverock is to increase the microfauna and bacteria diversity in the Aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo not use in the Aquarium itself, only use it as dip in separate aquarium containers. Corals and frags or rocks will not carry any harmful chemicals, fungicide, insecticides into the aquarium! The dip is very gentle on Corals, however very sick Corals from shipping stress or diseases may not survive the dip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAEFW species and other parasites are going to be killed during the dip, however eggs are not penetrated when used in the given directions. Testing if AEFW and other Pests eggs are effectively penetrated and eliminated are in progress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to apply:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is important that the Coral dip in the tank water is mixed prior adding the corals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd 30ml Exodus into 1Liter Aquarium water and stir up quick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIF the Dip concentrate has a slightly brown yellow appearance, this is normal, but has no noticeable smell! Newer Versions of Exodus are usually clear and have no noticable smell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor very resistant and most effective dipping the Coral is in the dip for 60 minutes and must remain in a slow but continuous flow so the water and dip can penetrate the coral through wormholes deep inside the coral clusters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is important and typically these worms start to come out earliest after 10-15 minutes into the dip. It helps to pull worms out of the holes after 30 minutes of dip, to allow more water to enter the inner of the coral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis can be a very gross task, so be prepared and have tweezers ready.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI have not have heard of any other Dip on the market that does remove invasive Spionid worm species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery useful was the use of small cheap PETCO aquariums with 2 gallons or smaller capacity, a very small cheap powerhead and a short preset heater that keeps the tank temp from dropping below 25\/26degC which is the preset on these small mini heaters. Available at PETCO as well usually for very reasonable cost, so you have a complete DIP setup you can use anytime for frags and colonies to a certain size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmall frags can be dipped in specimen containers which are usually 100ml of water, along with a 3ml amount of Dip. With the Lid on top of the specimen container, the Specimen container (aka Piss Cup in Reefer Jargon), can be closed and rinsed with tapwater on the outside and then let go into the display tank since the water movement and temp will keep the dip solution in motion and on temperature during the dip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter any type of method, after the dip it's recommended but not required to rinse the coral in Aquarium water to get rid of loose organisms on the coral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBe aware that in certain cases, that in case you mix different SPS Corals in a single container for bathing and cleaning, Corals may release slime and toxins as part of their defense mechanisms as when they touch each other and will try to outcompete others. In this case the dipwater will start to become cloudy and milky and it's recommended to abort the Dip and do a different selection of Corals in the combined dip to minimize Coral Warfare while in the dip container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExodus is a Bio-smart ecofriendly Product, as the Reef Moonshiner's goal is to avoid accumulation of harmful Chemicals and compounds in a full synthetic operated Reef Aquarium with ideally no Water changes, therefore Exodus Dip procedures do not release any substances that may harm your Tank inhabitants!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAndre's personal note on the dip:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI personally use the dip on all my Corals for actually 2-3 hours when I see signs of potentials stress from a disease or potential parasite or new arrival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmall PETCO tank with 7-8 Liters, a preset temp heater, and a small powerhead keeps the solution in motion and allows a safe dipping procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnhealthy Corals sometimes do not survive, healthy corals were dipped numerous times every other day with mostly no, in some cases very minor signs of stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNot for Human consumption or pets.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKeep out of reach of children.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reef Moonshiners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49430106308852,"sku":null,"price":71.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0490\/9396\/8027\/files\/Exodus.webp?v=1789757188","url":"https:\/\/candycorals.ca\/products\/reef-moonshiners-exodus-dip","provider":"Candy Corals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
