Experience with hydrogen peroxide dip?

[Jing_xoxo]

I'm considering a hydrogen peroxide dip to save a zoa. Has anyone ever done one and was it successful, and what was your ratio?

I had scrubbed a couple that had alot of algae growing on them with no ill affect. It was a 50/50 mix with rodi water. Rinsed in fresh rodi water and put back it the tank. Opened up next day.

It also depends on what is wrong with the zoa. Zoa pox can also cause them to not open, and the only way to save them from that is Furan II medication dips.

Peroxide is hit or miss and I've had more be a miss and kill the frag

I dip mine with peroxide and tank water. All my zoas were stressed out but they recovered quickly and in better shape surprisingly. I recommend it because it worked wonders for me.

It looks like something is eating away at the skin, like am infection. It doesn't look like smallpox from the pictures I can compare to, but at this point it's looking towards the end, they haven't opened in 2 week and are only getting darker.


I did a revive dip on Monday and I definitely got some good feed back on most of the zoas except the one mentioned, and I'm more at my last resort than anything.


Fyke,what's your ratio?

I just poored the peroxide lol. I probably over did it, but I did half and half.

I have used to dip as well as to pue in tank to get rid of hair algea. My button polyp bit it but got rid of algea and everything else was fine.
