Red Sea – DipX – 100ml

Discover DipX

DipX is the new safe solution from Red Sea for introducing new corals and live rocks into an aquarium. Simply dip the new coral in a DipX bath for 15 minutes and watch the pests such as Acropora-eating flatworms, Montipora-eating nudibranchs, and Acropora red bugs abandon ship.

DipX is a specific blend of essential oils, without inorganic disinfectants, very effective for bathing corals without stressing them.

Based on extensive research, DipX is the safest and most effective solution available for SPS, LPS, soft corals, Zoanthids, mushroom anemones, and live rocks.

Risk-free introduction of new corals

Red Sea’s DipX is a highly effective and safe bath for introducing new corals and live rocks into your aquarium.

A simple 15-minute bath in DipX before placing your corals in your aquarium will drive out pests while preserving your reef.

New corals often arrive with hidden pests in their crevices. These varied tiny creatures are often invisible to the naked eye and, once introduced, can spread to other corals and damage your fragile reef ecosystem.

Year after year, reef hobbyists have used generic bath solutions such as freshwater, iodine, and even household disinfectants. These drive away some pests but not all.

In recent years, we have maintained tanks full of infested corals in our laboratory and compared a wide range of commercially available baths and other solutions, evaluating their effectiveness and safety for corals.

The result is DipX – a unique blend of essential oils, without any inorganic disinfectants. Our tests have shown that DipX is absolutely safe for all types of corals and more effective than all other tested solutions.

Corals dipped in DipX, after being previously dipped in other solutions, still released pests. Conversely, corals that had been dipped in other solutions, after being dipped in DipX, did not release anything at all.
