So never done the drip system...and my question is, when adding a fish (or anything else for that matter) to the qt...do I drip from that tank into the bucket, or from the display tank into the bucket, since idealy the two tanks should be nearly identical

Drip from the QT tank. It should already have DT (display tank) water in it and some form of bio-filtration (i.e. sponge filter).

Yeah, unless you've been running the qt on it's own for some time, then the water could be a bit different and you'd need to acclimate them to the qt water. Also - kudos to you for doing the right thing and qt'ing your fish first.

I'll be qt'ing anything that goes into the tank really, including coral, after some of the horror stories I've heard/read.... It's going to mean an empty tank longer, but in the end, a healthier one, so whatever I can do to make it easier, the better
