LPS critters

[alexgan]

Hi all LPS lover,

Recently i dip all my LPS into lugol's solution

after one of my blastos died out of sudden

and some funny critters actually swim out from

their body? I just wondering is there any solution

that can pure in the main tank and make sure

all critters die, just in case they hidding in the LR.

If you dont believe me, any dead coral, you dip

into fresh water and you will see something swim out.

Wondering what's is that also?

You may see your coral open nicely, but once you dip it it will come out.

After dipping the following result that found critter coming out:-

Prata - YES

Cynarina - Yes

Blasto - Yes

Lobo - Nope

Bubble - Yes

Acan - Yes

Brain - Nope

Echinata, True Octopus, Hammer, Fog spawn, Moon - didn't dip
