I use Seachem Reef Dip. Works fine for me.

Personally I use Lugal's Iodine after fragging and Iodine/Revive for new goodies.

hands down best is Melafix...that's right I said melafix..get's rid of any pest and is an excellent antiseptic

Any of these can remove asterinas? Aside from buying a harlequin shrimp? I noticed some harlequins around..

revive should take out the asterinas, it works on almost all other inverts I've noticed.

For after fragging and for general irritants (as in don't know if something's really wrong or just polyps not as happy as could be) I use revive with some lugols mixed in as well. Works pretty good.

Coral RX is great.

i use coralrx also. you can also add a few extra drops and the coral will still be safe and all pests eliminated

Coral rx is awesome, kills everything, is all natural, and virtually impossible to use to much.

I think iodine woud be best after fragging.

I have used lugols , coral rx and revive. I personally have found the best results with revive. It smells like pine sol though and scares me to use but it has worked well.

I'd agree on Zoas, but I do believe that overdoseing of CoralRx helped me lose a bunch of frags of some different deepwater acro's.
