I'm aware of Cipro, just not the "ICE' variation.

Anyone know where I can get foam to cover powerheads? This guy came in 4x bigger and badder than expected?!

Blue Haddoni looks great so far...keep and eye on the mouth and have Cipro ready if any signs of deflation/open mouth/etc.

I’ve been doing a lot of research on Cipro, I can’t seem to find a definitive answer as to when to pull the anemone and start using it...
other than gaping mouth and deflation.
Are there any other warning signs to look for?
As a founder of a this thread I would love anyone who has used Cipro on there Carpets to share their story!

I treat every new carpet, regardless of how it looks upon arrival. Treatment success rates are much higher the earlier you catch the infection. The only exception is if I'm buying an established carpet from another member.

 

[Christopher Davis]

So it’s safe to assume that I should treat it anyways?!

I would, unless you picked it up from someone that's had it for say 6 months. Cipro, done right, won't hurt a healthy or sick nem.

How do you go about doing the treatment/ where did you get the meds?!
