there isalways a way, i have a friend who has a q tank if i need it, i just hate to discourage someone with limited funds not to do a good hobby like this.but i do understand what you are saying

wow scsinet, you seem like your very educated dude, im flattered that the argument kinda involved me but no need to argue, and im not choosing sides but i do intend to get a qt tank but i really didnt have the room or the time to set it up
but yes i do intend to get one
sorry about the trouble, didnt expect to see all those kinda replies from my post but i think its a matter of choice, and in mine i choose to do it what i think is the right way and as you put it metaphorically, get my wings checked and and my planes oil changed
lol
thanks guys!!!

In lieu of a quarantine tank at this point, I still suggest that you have the LFS hold your fish for a period of time before you take it home.
Triggers are not terribly apt to carrying disease, so it's not the most horrible thing in the world to purchase without a quarantine tank, but it still should be a part of your normal regimen, first to allow you to isolate and treat any illnesses that new arrivals or sick fish require, and second to protect your established tank.
I wasn't a believer in quarantine myself until I killed an Emperor Angel, Red Sea Sailfin, and a Red Coris Wrasse (all pretty expensive fish) because of one Blue Hippo I didn't bother to quarantine that brought in Velvet.
