When buying corals online and you can't really see them for pest and other hitch hikers should I buy a small tank to place them in and then dip them then put them in my aquarium?

When buying new corals online?

No matter where you get your Coral from you will always take a chance of this. Some people remove the Coral from the frag plug that it’s on and dip the coral and then glue it to a new frag plug or right into the tank sometimes after quarantining the Coral’s, sometimes not. What I do is I buy the corals from one place only usually And dip the coral and revive and sometimes I will brush it off with a old toothbrush and then rinse it again and then put it in my tank

Always QT fish and corals. I keep a 6-line wrasse, emerald crab, hermits and a springer damsel in a 14G tank with a skimmer, HOB filer, heater and a pair of Kessil lights for 2-3 months. Have never (knock on wood) had any pests make it into my main tanks. Can't tell you how great it feels.
