So during the QT process, what should we be looking for?

Daily, I check pH, SG, and ammonia. The biggest thing you want to watch for is ammonia. This will kill your fish faster than anything else and is easily preventable. A magnifying glass may be handy to check for physical signs of disease. As stated, some fish and most corals and inverts do not tolerate hypo, so read up on this a bit if you are not comfortable with this procedure
.
As you can probably tell, QT is not a display and cannot be forgotten for days on end. There have been some excellent points made by everyone on this thread.
