If you were quarantining coral that you knew was from a tank that had aiptasia or that you considered highly suspect to having been exposed to aiptasia how long would you quarantine for before adding it to your display tank?
 
This nuisance anemone is virtually impossible to avoid when adding corals, rock etc. If you add peppermint shrimp to your display a few will likely feed on any that come up. It is the easiest and most effective fix in my opinion too.
 
I got my first corals and of course one had aiptasia on it. I removed the rock it was on just looking for an idea of how long to quarantine for before I can reasonably assume it is safe. For the guys who answered in the poll you would never put a coral in your tank that you thougt may have been exposed to aiptasia where do you buy your coral?
