The dipping system will kill off: sp. Of flatworms, ciliates, nudibranches, bacterium as well as tissue necrosis.
Dip Part A: 3 ml to 5 L of tank water (dip) aerate the dip to allow the mixture to reach all parts of the affected corals. Dip for 5
minutes. Do not exceed this time.
Dip is Harmful to Pets. Not for human consumption. Dip is harmful to fish.
Before dip B rinse the coral in DI-RO water. Make sure the DI_RO water matches the temperature of the tank water. And just
rinse don’t leave coral in Di-RO (this step is optional to remove dip A), swish the coral in the water to remove content of dip A.
Dip Part B: 6 ml to 5 L of tank water dip for 5 minute. Do not exceed the time.
If contact is made with your skin, rinse off in cold fresh water may cause irritation that will last a few minutes.

Tips : best to look for early symptoms of brown jelly disease in Euphiliya, sps and other stony corals.
When a coral is melting (brown jelly ) or has a polyp bail out and you can frag the affected part away, it will help with the
recovery. Remember that some corals will be too far gone sometimes to make it (skeleton might already be filled and eroding
due to the infection.)
Symptoms to look for:
⮚ Coral not fully opening.
⮚ Flaking off of jelly on the stem or lifting.
⮚ Tentacles have bleach marks on them.
⮚ Shrivelling up of some tentacles.
⮚ White/ brown slime coming from the mouth.
⮚ Broken tips of tentacles, and brown jelly inside tentacles.
⮚ Protruding up or opening wide of the mouth.
Things to check before doing anything are your tank parameters.
We highly recommend Quarantining of all new additions you want to add to your aquarium common introduction to these
parasites, bacteria, protozoa, polyclads and polychaetes .All these are easily transferred to your reef aquarium when you
don’t follow the correct protocol can come in on corals, rock, frag plug, and other invertebrates.
