Great coral dip for hard or soft corals.
| Comments |
I bought this dip when I was battling flatworm problems in my pico and it was recommended I use this to clean my zoanthids. I was a little unsure since it said for hard corals and even more unsure when I first smelt it, because it smells just like a pinesol cleaner, but since it was recommended I went ahead. A 10 min dip of all my zoas, mushrooms, and kenya tree has made everything happy again! This stuff got so much stuff off of my frags. I do recommend you dip, dunk, swish and swirl the coral to get the best results. You should still inspect your coral after dipping to look for little guys that have held on or for eggs. I have found no reason to do a second dip, but have heard that it is a good idea in case there were some eggs that may hatch after the first dip. I really like this dip because it does not have iodine in it. I am allergic to iodine and can not use other coral dips that have it in them, so this is good for me because I can still dip my corals and help my tank look great!

Unsure about the smell...not what I was expecting
If you don't wash your hands, you might have a little skin irritation, but nothing bad.

Pinesol smelling coral dip, But it works Great!
| Comments |
This stuff works great! I know it says its for stony corals, but I have used it on a zoanthid rock and the zoanthids came right back the next day. It smells like pinesol....almost exactly. Its very potent and will kill some of the bad guys, you should still inspect your coral just to be on the safe side. This product kills aeolid nudibranchs as well, The same zoanthid rock as stated before was dipped for this reason. It made the eggs easier to manually remove and the adults just fell off, havent seen them since. Great all around product! One bottle would last you a year probably. The price is right too!

Works well
Good Price
Potent formula doesn't harm corals
Smells nice and citrousy
You can use the water continuous for 10-15 minutes, so you can dip all your corals with one dose, or so the bottle says.

Smells citrousy.....it scared me when I was dipping my corals in this product that smelt like something I clean my floors with, so I had to call the lfs immediately to make sure it was the right liquid in the bottle. Buyers beware, if it smells funny, its supposed to.

The best dip for corals out there.
| Comments |
I have been using revive for about a year now exclusively for treating new corals. It's is awesome! a 10 min dip in this stuff and all kinds of stuff if falling off a coral. I think this product is also much less harsh than Lugols and other dips. It does smell like pine sol and that really made me wonder when I first used it but in the last year I have not used anything else and it's very effective. I have seen everything from Flatworms, nudibrances and bristel worm jumping off coral while dipping and I have not lost any coral fro dipping. Lastly this stuff is cheap under $10 for a decent sized bottle and you only use a few cps to a gallon when dipping.

great coral dip
| Comments |
A great preventative dip for new or damaged stony corals, but it's not a replacement to a quarantine setup. This product is easy to use and is well packaged. This is a good volume of the product as well, so it should last a good while (as I generally don't use much of it at a time).
|
| Liked about it |
It works well at cleaning stony corals and should help remove any adult pests. It's simple to use and the instructions are clear. The packaging is good (compared to other coral dips, which I've had leak on me due to the soap-style dispenser).
|
| Didn't like |
While this isnt necessarily against the product itself, this is no replacement for proper QT procedures. Most coral dips do nothing for eggs of pests, so if you use this exclusively you're still at danger of introducing pests into your display.

After some pests showing up in friends systems, I figured it would be smart to do a better job of preventing infestation. This is one of two pre-tank dips I use to prevent some of the more common vermin.

Not crazy expensive, smells nice...and oh, it does help stun/dislodge some of the bad guys. Probably not redbugs, and the nudis still need to be scraped, but it does help.
