The DT never did cycle (that i noticed) and was ready to rock right from the first fill.   
  
If everyone's looking healthy I may just move them over sooner than later.  The QT tank seems like more of a problem stressing out otherwise seemingly healthy fish, but ready online guides keep stressing the importance of quartining new arrivals that's why I went this route.  
  
Thanks for the replys anyways.

I personally don't qt anything, just dip and throw in my tank. Might not be the best advice but has worked for me so far.

 Some people have luck with newer tanks, others don't. But I agree, I have had pretty good luck without a QT
