Can I dip a torch?

[jceli728]

I picked up a nice Torch yesterday from the show. I have put it in a quarantine tank since I'm not sure where it came from. Can I dip it with the same recipe used for zoas? or is there a different process for LPS's.

Not sure what zoo recipe you have, but if you use this one:

NO! Can't dip LPS's.

You can dip it in TMPCC if you have any, also a quick iodine dip will work, I dipped my new frags in Flatworm Exit and (Interceptor-SPS only) yesterday.

I drip acclimate and then add lugols and flatworm exit at the end.

I tried Mucho Reefs method on other Euphyllias and they seemed to stress quite a bit, although they were OK after the treatment.
