How often/how many times can you dip an acropra in tropic marin Pro coral cure to try to stop slow tissue recession on one edge? ?? once? every few days???
Thanks
 
IME, dipping an already hurting SPS is not a good thing to do. The coral is already stressed, putting it in any solution stresses the coral even more.

First step should be to check all your parameters.
Any big changes to your tank lately?
Is the coral getting too much direct flow?
Is it possible for it to have a bug on it (red bugs, acropora eating flatworm, etc)?
 
If it's not a parasite you suspect to be causing the recession, I don't think I'd use a dip more than one time.
