Dipping/quarentine of corals?

[allykahn]

Hello,

I am planning to purchase some zoanthids and other corals. I have read about many wild zoos that are infested with nudibranches and their eggs. Should I take the necessary steps (dip/QT) of zoas/corals that are purchased from you or is the process done by Live Aquaria prior to shipping?

Also, I am I correct to assume that you do not have Monday deliveries?

Thanks,
Allan

Allykahn,

Thank you for your post. Corals that come into our holding facilities are treated in quarantine for any possible parasites and disease before they are released for shipping. When a coral is shipped, we still recommend quarantining the specimen before adding it to your main aquarium. As of this time, we do not offer delivery on Mondays, as FedEx does not pick up packages on Sunday.
