If done right, QT is the way to go. But more often than not, people dont have the time to keep an eye on a side tank to make sure the fish is doing well and everything is in check. Id much prefer an observation tank, and see how the fish settles.
After my failed QT attempts, I now only purchase from a vendor near me who QTs minimum 14 days in copper. Less work for me, and really isnt much more expensive than other vendors near me and have had no illness for over a year of business.
