Coral dip & acclimating new corals

When you order corals online, what is the proper acclimation process-
15 minutes floating to match water temp
Slow drip for ~30 minutes
Coral dip (and post-rinse) for 10-15 minutes?

I recently discovered a nudibranch issue with zoa's and I have a shipment arriving tomorrow and wish to be more cautious.
Thx
 
I float for 15 minutes, then straight into a 10 minute dip in Tropic Marin Pro Coral Cure, followed by a 10 minute dip in Revive, flush with clean saltwater and then into my quarantine tank. You shouldn't need to drip acclimate, corals will be in 1.026sg water.
 
This^. If salinity matches, there is no acclimation. And corals are always in water the proper salinity for corals to live or they're not living.
