Hi,
I dipped a coral today & found these three after. Any idea what they are?
Thanks!

Two tiny pistol shrimp on the left and a serpent sea star on the right. Neither of these would really cause any issues with the coral.

this is an older thread, but I have a question about the results mentioned above.
Once you dip, and you see these critters come out of the corals. Since these are not "problem critters", can you scoop them up and add them to the QT / display tank? Or did the coral dip kill them immediately?

Some critters may die from the dips, but a lot of them will be totally fine to scoop out and add to a tank. Many of them will be fine once removed from the dip.
