Would you take coral from a tank that had ich?

Yep...got no fish in the tank anyways but all you have to do is QT them. They can easily take a couple of hours.

My QT tank is a 40g shallow tank...drilled with a sump. I went large so I could QT colonies (read about red bugs and acro eating flatworms...to start) and they should all be QT'd.....I learned the hard way.....BUT my lighting is a 250w halide, I have a skimmer and good current.....plus excellent water quality.

In answer to having that bulb as a QT tank bulb for acros...I wouldn't think that was ideal...I QT my corals for a few weeks now....so it wouldn't remotely work....maybe someone else will chime in with experiences they have had...but any QT and frag systems have MH lighting

I always cut frags off whatever they're mounted to anway, so taking a frag like this wouldn't be an issue.

I have never lost a fish to ich. I think ich is kind of like fleas on a dog if the fish has a strong immune system it can fight them off...marine velvet on the other hand is a nasty parasite .

I think ich is a permanent resident of my tank already so I have no problem with frags coming from an ichy tank. Like others, I remove substrate from all frags and iodine dip them. I'm guessing that it's unlikely I would transfer ich in this way anyway.

Without a doubt.
