Idea behind dipping is flawed. Parasites may drop away to escape the active ingredient in the dip, and some may be killed immediately, but the only way to kill/remove all the parasites in a brief dip is to expose the koi to high concentrations involving excessive risk. A dip is useless for viral or bacterial infections, which are my primary concerns.
