Hi,
I really dont have space to set up a QT tank. I already have about all the fish I want in my 110 gallon (4 ft x 2ft x 22in high). I'm concerned mainly about disease coming in on corals. I know the only way to best proof against this is QT. I just cant at this point.
I do have Coral Rx. I have gotten my corals only from LiveAquaria and some from Cherry Corals. I mention that b/c I know the source matters especially with no QT.
What is the best way for me to proceed. Since I can only do some form of dipping technique. I know it will be far from 100%.

Thanks
