So guys im working on a DIY tank right now, before I think to much about buy corals I would like to know what’s the best way to Acclimate them? Some people live by drip and others just plot there coral in there tank (Obviously having proper PH and temp) and still have never lost one. So please any info is helpful !

I temp the bag. Open and add a bit of tank water every 10 min till doubbled. Dip for 5 min swirlling or basting a few times. Rinse in tank water then in they go.
I will say im not too worried about pests. I try to have a very diverse tank. Hopes that what survives is pleasing to my eye. What bad stuff comes in will get ate before it can cause havoc.

I temp the bag, then do a dip and just plop them in. Never had any problem whatsoever, and they almost always open up within minutes.
