Of course I disagree with almost everything so far on this thread but that's just me. You can of course quarantine and many people have success with that method but I prefer to keep my fish and tank natural so they never get sick, not even the 27 year olds.
But most, if not all people will disagree with me and some of them would be correct especially if you are a Noob or if your tank is very new. If that is the case, quarantining may be your only option.
Fish will almost certainly get sick in a new tank if they are not quarantined because a new tank doesn't yet have the bacteria, parasites and viruses that keep our fish normal, natural and healthy.
Quarantined fish will always have to be in with everything that is quarantined because those fish have no immunity. If you quarantine fish you should also have a hospital tank because your fish will most certainly get sick occasionally and have to be treated.
Immune fish never get sick so there is no need for such a tank but in your case I feel you are in a hard place and have a new tank.
I am not sure what to tell you. Good luck
