Coral acclamation????

[myreefclub0070]

Just wondering how many of you out there fine it as necessary to acclamate your new corals as you do your fish?
I know a few personally that don't at all and some how lucky enough to get away with it.
What do you do?

I dont acclimate corals but I do float them in a bag to get the right temp before introducing them to the tank (after a dipping of course).

I pretty much skip it and dip it. Sometimes I'll float the bag

If it's a hardy coral I dip and do a quick acclimate. If it's a pricy coral I dip and acclimate like a fish.

If I don't know 100% conditions of the previouse tank that housed it, it goes into my QT tank. Then I'll watch it and dip again every few days. Often, when possible I'll remove it from the existing plug as extra precaution... I'm VERY cautious when history is unknown!
