Jacob,
All sounds good to me. With this hobby there's no such thing as "too conservative". I didn't "bother" with the hassle of quarantining fish. Everything was great for a couple of years until ich showed up. Lost about half my fish. Wound up moving them to a 55 gallon hospital tank, treated them with copper and let the DT sit empty for 9 weeks. In the meanwhile I wound up doing massive water changes in the hospital tank to keep the ammonia in check as the tank had not cycled. Not fun at all.
Learned my lesson from that experience. Now nothing goes into the tank without being properly quarantined. And I know even at that I'm only reducing, but not eliminating my chances of introducing parasites and disease.
I'm hoping after the nine weeks of sitting empty that my DT was ich free and that I've done nothing since then to reintroduce it.
On another note I haven't used PraziPro, but after doing some research I'm going to add that to my procedure.
