So I had a QT tank but the 2 clownfish died from what I could only say are internal issues as they didn't eat. anyway, there was a skunk cleaner shrimp, a tiger conch, a ricordia mushroom, and a zoa in the tank with the fish.
my DT has been ready to a while now and can take those animals, my question is should i add them or do i need to do something?
since they all were with the fish when they died, idk if they could carry something into the DT. i think i saw somewhere online someone comment that i should wait for the shrimp to molt and then add, i should dip the corals, etc.

idk what to do rlly i haven't had a situation like this before. any thoughts? thx in advance!

Dip the corals. You're probably fine with inverts, but you can also wait a while to be on the safe side.
ill probably dip them today, and my shrimp molted today (what a coincidence I was just talking about him molting yesterday), since he molted, should I go ahead and add him? there wont be any fish in the DT for about 2-5 weeks anyway, only corals, LR, and snails
