ICH and quarantine

[Aperera]

I had a ICH outbreaks in my tank. Now tank is fish less almost 45 days. Just planing to put my fish back to the tank once it complete 76 days without fish. L
I have cromies, six-line wrasse, watchman Gobby, bluestreak Cleaner Wrasse, algae blenny fish in another system.
Just need a advice will all of them okay with coper treatment. If so how many days do it need to make them QT before I add them to my DT. Or any other QT treatment.

Here is a link to my current quarantine protocol:

Current Quarantine Protocol

2023 Quarantine Procedures Jay Hemdal David Scarborough Protozoans (Cryptocaryon/ich, Amyloodinium/velvet) and Metazoan trematodes/flukes are by far the most common parasites found on newly acquired fish. A carefully managed quarantine process can effectively eliminate these parasites before...

Trouble is, cleaner wrasse and algae blennies have specific requirements for feeding that won't be easily met in a quarantine tank (fish parasites and algae respectively).

May I know how did you do a water change in QT, can I use my DT water to replace or do I need to make saltwater whenever I wanted to have WC?

That’s a good question. I like to use DT tank water to change the QT, then use fresh mixed seawater for the DT. Be careful that no tank tools go from the QT back to the DT though.
