Dude, Thanks

[B]Jonathan's right, I am specifically referring to a dip and not a tank treatment. As for the TMPCC dip, I don't really follow the directions on the bottle with respect to concentration, although I do stick to the recommended duration. When I get new corals, I float them in the tank for temperature stabilization, then pour all of the frags into a bucket in their warmed water, assuming I got them from the same place. I then add TMPCC to the water until it's the color of very strong tea (or very weak coffee) and I leave it there for 15 minutes. Next I rinse it off in a bucket of my tank water, then it goes straight into the tank. Occasionally I'll add some of my tank water to the dip bucket to acclimate for pH and salinity, and that's probably a smarter move to recommend, but it's not always necessary. I'm going to add an Interceptor dip to the above regimen, along with a Fluke Tab dip, although with heavily concentrated TMPCC the Fluke Tabs probably aren't necessary.
