do you quarantine your new additions?

I was on RC last night and there is a multitude of threads there about whether to QT or not and one of the longer threads about 80+ pages somebody figured out around 40% QT while the rest did direct dumping or a variation of QT

Not that I want to dwell on the subject but I found the following quote somewhat appropriate:

"Not using a quarantine tank is like playing Russian roulette. Nobody wins the game, some people just get to play longer than others." - Anthony Calfo

Ya know, the worst part of QT is the waiting

Anxious to get the new fish added to the DT
