Any one quarantine there corals prior to introduction?

Please post your process and your set up and any suggestions



Fears of naughties is making me want to start putting my new corals thru quarantine.

I think my process will be
Acclimate
Dip
Rince
Quarantine 20-30 days. Probably more like the 30 but depends how stable I can keep it
20 pct water change every 2 days. But may go to 3 as life gets in the way.
Dip
Rinse
Acclimate into dt
Place:-) in that perfect spot begging for more coral.


2.5 gal tank
Mini pump
Share t5 off of a frag tank.

Likely add a small muffin fan to cool.
 
I've heard horror stories so I probably should but I have just been dipping, rinsing and sticking them in DT.
