Welcome!

I don't acclimate, as the corals will take their own time to adjust to your water. I do recommend dipping your corals however.

Unless the corals are going from being under T-5 lights to metal halides in your tank, you should be fine. I just dip mine and put them in you might want to try dipping in flatworm exit as others have said it's good to get rid of nudibranchs.
