Do you always dip your corals when you get them from the store?

Do you always dip your corals to make sure that it removes any hitchhikers or other pests when you get them from the store, or do you skip that? If you do skip, what are your reasons (is it time, money for getting the dip, not seeing any positive results from doing so, etc.)?

Always - I don’t care if I just bought a new coral from their display coral section only, it’s honestly the one way to make sure you have 0 pests that enter in. Same said for live plants in freshwater, the pest may not be on some plants but could be on a vast majority - you just never will know or have any idea.
