    I'm assuming a QT wouldn't hurt. I don't really know too much about nems unfortunately, but I would assume that all the regular precautions you would take with any other piece of live rock is a good place to start.

    Make up a large enough coral dip. My Seachem dip is Anemone safe. I've used it on all my corals and my nem.
