I have dipped euphyllias in Seachem Coral Dip with NO ill effects! First time I did it was some years back when I did two reefers a favor by holding a nem on a rock over night. Well, that nem & the rock had flat worms on it so I had no choice but to dip the frogspawn cause all the fw jumped on it.
Recently I got a frogspawn amongst other corals which were all dipped in Bayer Advance Home Pest with Germ Killer. Again no ill effects....

Wouldn't recommend Melafix

I've used Tropic Marin Pro-Coral Cure for knocking flatworms off of Euphyllias, it worked great. I would imagine most iodine-based coral dips would be similarly effective and safe. However, I'm not sure how effective any dip may be against hydroids - your best bet may be to simply wire brush them off the base, then repeat as necessary if they grow back.
