Clam Aclimation / QT

[Jarosh]

I was just wondering what everyone's views are with clam aclimation and Quarentine? I've used standard drip aclimation, but no real QT since I only have the one Crocea. But in the event I pick up another clam would it be wise to QT? Based on what I've been reading there doesn't seem to be a large concern for clam aliments (like ich in fish, or red bugs on sps), but I could have over looked something.

Any feed back would be great.

Thanks
Paul
