I am setting up second tank and I am thinking about transferring some rocks from my current aquarium. But the problem is I have dino outbreak and all of my rocks are covered with it. Any tips how I can safely transfer rock to do no spread dino to new tank?
Please advise.
 
You can’t, you either need to cure the Dino in the old tank or cure the rocks before putting them in the new tank but that would kill the bacteria so pointless exercise really.
 
DInos will come no matter what you do. If there is a way to keep them out, I do not think that anybody has heard of it. I would not sweat this too much. A few days in a bucket with heat, flow and no light might knock them back if it makes you feel better.
