GothSpice 38 Posted April 26, 2016 So I've ordered some Java Moss & Watersprite from AquariumPlants.com, and I was wondering what's the safest way to do a bleach dip on them? I can't afford to get potassium permanganate, and I already have bleach, so that's what I'm rolling with. I'm assuming a 1 minute dip in 1 part bleach/19 parts water, then straight into 5x Primed water, then rinsing under the tap, and then soaking in 5x Primed water to wait as I go through all the plants and to watch them for any melting. Do you guys feel this is sufficient? Will this kill any snails/parasites without killing the plants? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel 5,668 Posted April 26, 2016 That's how I usually do it, although I'm far more lackadaisical about dosing prime. You may get some die off, but in the event that happens, it'll grow back. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
