I've tried this out a few days ago on a colony of zoos just to test it out. I followed the instructions in the thread 10 min dip .5 ml of bayer for every 2 cups of water. The zoos were fine they showed no signs of stress during the dip. All the pods and nuisance flatworms died off a few mins in. I rinsed the frag off with tank water before putting it back into the tank and the zoos were all opened after about 30 mins or so. The bayer also didn't kill the mini feather dusters that were on the frag. 3 days later everything in the tank seems fine ( Fish, pod population ect)
Yesterday i tried this again, this time with some acros i had just gotten. Followed the same instructions and got the same result. All kinds of pods and nuisance flatworms died and 30 mins after the dip the polyps started to extend and they have looked good since then.
Seems like this could be nice treatment for red bugs, Id like to see someone who has them give it a shot. For AEFW however it might as good a treatment. Whisper noted in his thread while it will kill any adult FWs it most likely wouldn't kill the eggs since the membranes are not permeable and a short dip most likely wouldn't have an effect.
So its probably a great flash treatment, like revive or iodine but the interceptor/lemosole treatment would probably be the safer root for new frags
Anyone else try this out yet?
