Not arguing with any of the practices.....Even though I'm not a firm believer in the acclimation process that most employ here on this site.....I think there is a better proven method as far as acclimation, and that varies depending where the specimen is purchased. Again that is another subject/topic in itself.
I was again curious and never gave it much thought about the quarantine of CUC, only for the mere fact I've never really employed a CUC.......Have never been a fan of hermits, but snails are a bit useful IMO.....Most people usually float and add them to their DT......I'm questioning the practice as to why it really isn't stressed or mentioned really about QTing inverts. I fully understand the stages of ICH, which isn't the question, but as most of us do QT fish, I'd bet 90-95% have never thought about their inverts they purchase. Again there is no guarantee on anything you purchase. You might think you know the source of your purchase, but you can't guarantee or assume anything.....All make look well at the LFS or a trusted site, but again poor practice if you don't.
Even corals being QT.......Most assume or use the medicated dip or fresh water dip.....Again useful, but surely not the most effective way to guarantee a pest free environment. Be it flat worms, red bugs....All this could be isolated and caught possible with a dip of your choice, but again there is no guarantee that all was gotten during the dip, and still could be other hitchhikers tagging along that weren't affected through this process.
