Is ICH still around, tank not fallow

I just had a huge ICH investation and 70% of my fish died. All I have left is a small yellow wrasse, an orange spotted goby and a yasha gobi (and inverts)

QUESTION: The remaining fish seem to be doing fine... Since the tank is not fallow (void of fish) is ICH still present? I heard that it takes 6 weeks or more for ich to die off completely only if there are no fish in it.

So if I still have fish, but seem to be geting better or are immune, when should I add new fish or will ICH always be present unless i remove all the fish for 6 weeks+?
 
You'll want to remove all the fish from your DT for 6+ weeks and let it fallow. The others probably won't show external signs even though might be present in their gills, etc.

I'm in the same boat as you are right now.
