Do you quarantine your corals?

Do you quarantine your corals?
If you do what is your set-up and for how long?
If you don't do you do any type of treatment before putting new frags in your tank?
Opinions?

I dont quarantine but I dont really buy any SPS from LFS's I buy from locals that I trust

Yep.

Yup. Currently, my setup is a 20L with a 175W MH, a MJ 1200, Magnum 250 HOB, and a Berlin Turbo HOB skimmer (not he most efficient, but works for a 20). Everythign from here on out will be quarantined for at least three weeks, regardlss of who it comes from. If you alter your procedure for one person, you'll slip and alter for another, then you get AEFW's or something of the like. Nasty little critters running amuck... Better safe than sorry. I've seen too many losses over the last three months to not QT...

For those of you that do QT your SPS. Do you have standard practice of running interceptor or dips before/during QT? Even if you do not see red bugs or AEFW just to make sure???
