DOnt dip the rocks very long, but corals are pretty hardy.

I found an artical on how to do the fresh water dips when I was looking into this issue for myself. I will try to find it and let you know the site.

I have a great nudi that came in on a soft coral, he is wicked cool and eats soft corals, but he is leaving all my softies alone except my pulsing xenia which he maintains to the point where they dont overgrow everything but he doesnt decimate them either which is great, plus he looks wicked cool

Sorry I looked and can't find the artical a was refering to. I believe I recall that you would dip in FW of same temp and ph for about 60sec(for rock with no corals) and about 30sec(for rock with coral) while you dip give it a little shake and then put into another bucket of fresh Saltwater (same temp and ph) and give it a quick blast with a power head to blow off the little buggers that did not fall off in the FW.Then return them to the tank. It is still risky though so if you plan to do the DIP I would really recomened finding out as much info on this subgect first and then if you feel comfortable go ahead. trial and error, hopfully without the error!
