I just learner from Heather Held, to first deep your nib in water and then your ink. Maybe this will help saving the nib from corroding. I use Sumi like Bianca suggested with the water ratio.

I've never found anything as gentle as walnut, but Higgins don't corrode nibs quite as quickly as bleedproof white or acrylics or the infamous iron galls. If you hate higgins, don't try the above mentioned. Or use G nibs. And also, what they mention about adding water, it's helpful.
