First AIO

Hi. I'm new to reefing. Still trying to cycle my tank. You seem to be adding a lot of corals in a short period of time. Do you not quarantine them first?
I do not. I am not saying that with pride either. A qt tank is not in the cards for me at the moment. I only buy from 2 sellers, and I dip them before adding them. I have qt’d in the past and agree that it is the best method though.

Darn was hoping for some sort of middle ground. :-) I want to populate my tank with as much as possible as soon as possible but I keep on hearing that I have to quarantine. I currently have a single clown in my QT. Since I didn't want to fishless cycle the QT before getting a fish, I'm essentially having to cycle the QT with the clown. I'm going fishless cycle with my DT.
