Default Question Regarding Leaders

Hi, I'm a fly fisher who is relatively new to the sport and I have a
couple of questions regarding leaders. To be as precise as possible:
(1) I've been using flourocarbon tippet to nymph and fish streamers with
no tapered leader. Should I be using a tapered leader in some
instances? For the streamer fishing I use a 4' fast sink tip and about
4' or 5' of tippet. (2) I want to change leaders quickly so my choices
are either loops or leader links. I've been using the loops for
subsurface fishing and the leader links for dries because it is quieter.
Is this the best way to do it? I'm SO confused. :-) TYIA, Tom
