new way to save melting zoos?

[markietan]

saw this on another forum, thought i might share. basically they are injecting diluted iodine right into the zoa polyps with very fine syringes... which i think makes some sense. iodine soak is like applying vicks... when u get a bad flu, sometimes u just have to get an antibiotics injection.

i'm gonna try it later on some zoas that have been closed for awhile now... anyway they look like they were gonna melt also. no harm trying

Then, it was dosing. Now, injections. Soon, surgery? transplant?

Anyway, let us know the results of your experiment.

Make sure you use the micro fine hypodermics to reduce the puncture hole.

here's an update on this treatment method. seems like the colony made a total rebound!
