Okay, that is a good question. My process for putting a new frag in my tank (beat me if you want : ) I do not have a QT completely setup yet)You got more control on your parameters than I do. I keep going back to dipping gone awry?
When I bring one home, I float it for a solid 30 - 45 minutes (Yeah, float it...lol, the bag normally sinks to the bottom ). Then empty the bag in a bucket and add some tank water every 15 minutes for 45 minutes. My basic idea here is... if I start with a gallon of FSL water, then 1cup of tank water at a time... I never get a gallon of FSL water when I buy SPS, so I adjust my tank water adds down to match. Then I use Revive to dip (pic below) I use less than the recommended amounts and never exceed the recommended time. The directions call for 4 capfuls for a gallon of water (I use 3). I adjust down for less water. It says no more than 15 minutes and keep the water moving.
I just keep my hand moving in the water for 5 minutes, rinse in a different bucket of tank water and place it In the tank.
(edit). I forgot to attach the pic
