I'm Moving A Big Piece Of Live Rock With Zoas Attached To It To A New TAnk. Old Tank Had A SMall Outbreak Of Nudibranches Which I Treated With Flatworm Exit Directly To Tank. Im Concerned That ROck I Am Moving May still Have nudiBranches That I Wouldn't Want To IntrOduce To New TAnk . Can I Dip The Rock In Lugols And Then Transfer To New TAnk? Maybe A Dip Of Lugols And Flatworm Exit Together?
 
i would dip in Coral RX for 7-10minutes.

making sure you blooooow into everyhole with a turkey baster and fliping it upsidedown Ect. to make sure all possiable nudis and life is gone. besides the zoas of course.
 
If you are removin it dip the rock on flatwom exit coral rx mix and then rinse in ro before putting in other tank
 
I would quarantine it for a few weeks or more and dip it on a weekly or biweekly basis. Dip can be flatworm exit, coral RX, bayer insecticide or a combination of the three. The important thing is to completely kill the nudi's and their eggs. A quarantine system can be a bucket with a heater and powerhead and clamp on light, very easy to setup a quarantine tank.
