Just MO, but FW dips seem like a terrible idea. Sure in theory it will kill parasites, etc., but most any cells that touch the freshwater (from a SW organism) will swell and burst. I would try other experimentation with chemicals in SW. I used an crystal violet SW dip on a clam suspected of pinched mantle and it seemed to work very well, Could have been just luck though.
