Tropic Marin Coral Clean 250 ml Cleaning iodine dip for corals
Cleaning iodine dip for corals
When introducing new corals, it is common to bring along unwanted organisms, parasites, or impurities that can pose a risk to the existing coral population. Tropic Marin® Coral Clean effectively eliminates the most frequent epiphytes, parasites, and impurities through a simple bath process. You can easily monitor progress by observing any animals that fall off, indicating whether additional baths are needed. This product is phosphate-free and gentler than traditional cleaning solutions like Lugol’s solution or fresh water.
Benefits:
- Phosphate-free, unlike conventional PVP iodine used for wound care
- No stress introduced to the tank from medications or biocides, as it is used in a bath
- Cleans corals of the most common epiphytes, parasites, and impurities
- Gentle treatment for corals
- Immediate success monitoring, as any fallen epiphytes and parasites remain in the bath
How to use:
Begin by filling a glass or plastic container with sea water from your aquarium, ensuring it can hold the coral during treatment. Add 1 ml of Tropic Marin® Coral Clean per 100 ml of water and mix it well. Fully immerse the new coral in this short bath for ten to fifteen minutes. Before returning the coral to the aquarium, give it a gentle shake in the bath to dislodge any deposits and unwanted organisms. Remember to carefully remove coral crabs prior to treatment and return them after the process. It is also essential to regularly check the aquarium’s water quality to promote coral health.
