I just need help clarifying a few things that have been covered before, but dont seem to have a concise answer on.

If I add corals on day 1 to my coral QT tank, and then add corals on day 20, does this restart the QT process for the corals added on day 1?

Also, is a 10G large enough for a few SPS corals to be quaratined in?

I generally only buy from a few select large retailers online, my local LFS are not dependable.
 
What do you mean? Did you delete a comment? Sorry I did not see it
I replied but decided what I posted may not really be helpful because it was more about fish QT so I removed it. Sorry for the confusion, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable about coral QT than I will come along.

Okay thanks anyways!

Yes it would restart. A flatworm from the day 20 could travel to the day 1 sps and lay eggers on it etc... No the size doesn't matter if the water quality / stability is good.
