Mangrove propagules, sanitizing/dipping

[BHReefer]

Hi all.

I picked up a few mangrove propagules while on vacation. Before trying to sprout them would you somehow sanitize them?

Thanks

No, any mud would help add microbial diversity to your microbiome. PaulB's been adding muck from tidepools for decades to his system.

If you are worried about parasites or some sort of disease. (I wouldn't) soak them in freshwater. I have mine growing in fresh water and they don't seem to know the difference.
