New Tank. Quarantine CUC?
Not that I'm adding any CUC yet. Obviously, it's too early. But come the time. Do you guys typically quarantine CUC for new tanks? Would you quarantine chaeto as well?

I don't QT CUC, and I'm probably one of the most paranoid when it comes to QT. Just make sure to NOT put any of the packing water into the tank. I haven't had to add any macro in a long time, but I would rinse the macro in discarded water change water.

I just float my CUC and then drop them in the tank without the LFS water. I would also rinse the macro as Palting's said above.
