developing a quarintine treatment route

I am in need of a bit of help here. I am planning on upgrading to a 90 gallon from a 55 and I need to develop a treatment plan for my fish. They have never been treated and don't show ich or anything but I know they have it. Also, I'm pretty sure they have gill flukes. I would like to also treat for internal parasites. So, I want to treat one fish at a time and introduce one fish at a time to the new tank (which is in the making now, not ready for fish). So here's the order I want to add what I have to the tank.

1) Mccosker's flasher (he's currently being bullied a bit by the Lubbock's fairy so he needs to go into the tank asap).
2) Lawnmower Blenny
3) Possum Wrasse
4) Clown Pair
5) Lubbock's Fairy
6) Diamond Goby

I need to treat them all so if you could reccommend a pathway to treating them that would be great. Also, I don't want to do hypo salinity for ich because I don't really think it works that well.

Thanks!
 
From the sticky above: Flukes: attack gills: fish lethargic, breathing impaired. Hypo or copper. Caution: do not use copper with angels and lions, or fish with low appetite. With copper, appetite supression is common; also use precise dose and time. With hypo absolute control of salinity and time is essential. An ATO in the tank helps immensely and will make it absolute, otherwise draw 'fill line' with tape and top off several times daily. Getting flukes out of your tank: inverts and corals may stay in tank: leave tank fishless for 8 weeks.
 
I'm just getting them "itching" their gills. Could be just ich in the gill stage? No lethargia or heavy breathing at all. One at a time will be treated and go into a clean parasite free tank once the treatment is done.
