I treat this tank with one dose of prazi-pro, prophylacticly.I will take a week or at least several days to bring the tank up to system salinity level before moving the fish out after 4 to 6 weeks.If the hypo fails I figure I can always add copper later.

I like your plan. For how many days will you leave the quarantined fish in hypo before beginning to raise the salinity back to a normal level?
