Looking to add a basic CuC (5-10 Trochus snails most likely) and maybe a shrimp or two to my 50g tank. My QT is current in use with a Multibar Angel and it's slowly coming up from 1.016 salinity so I can't really use it if I need to QT the inverts.

My tank is all dry rock and bare bottom so I've specifically tried to avoid hitchhikers and that's my other concern. What do you do for your inverts?
 
I QT my inverts if they are able to be QT'd. Urchins I don't and I QT shrimp until they molt. Cleanup crew I generally run through in my 15 gallon QT with a week treatment of Ruby Reef and Kick-Ich. Some sources of cleanup crew inverts I've just moved to my display as I see them as a trusted source. Most LFS's I just go through with the QT process above.
