Bayer Insecticide Dip Dosage?

[KoleTang]

What is the dosage you use? I have seen everything from 8mL Per Liter to 5mL Per Cup.

What bottle of Bayer are you using? I know there is some confusion between the bottles. Post the bottle color and what it says. Concentrate or watered down?

Also what corals have you used this on. How is it on Smooth skinned acros? Deepwater? LPS/Zoas? etc.

Still waiting to see what happens to the frag but a ton of stuff came off. Including rb's

I use 5ml bayer to 500ml tank water for 15 mins

So now we have:

- 3 ml per 10 oz - Bayer with germ control *ready to use*
- 5 ml per 500 ml - Not sure which bayer variation. ????

Let's get some more info on this subject. The variation of Bayer is very important as some are concentrated and some are ready to use.

I dilute 4 – 5 mls per 500 mls of tank water for approximately 15 – 20 minutes. I got the dilution number from THIS YouTube video.
