Quarantine for geometric hawk and sailfin tang

Recovering Detritophobe
Just bought these two new fish, I want to QT them and do a preventative treatment. I was thinking prazipro and cupramine? I am not so much worried about ich as I am about flukes and other parasites. I have started doing this with all my new fish anyway, but also because there was a small white patch on the tang's tail - not puffy like fungus but larger than ich. I have no doubts he is fine and it is probably nothing.

Anyway, any problems with this? Will both of these fish be okay with both of these medications?
 
I started the prazipro treatment last night, but I might skip the copper because after further research it seems tangs don't take to it very well.
 
In case anyone cares,

I bought the fish thursday night, added both to a 10g tank with the reccomended amount of prazi-pro. Friday I added the reccomended amount of cupramine. I added the second dose of curpamine saturday (waited 24 hrs instead of 48). 50% water change performed on monday, with both medications replaced. Fish went into the display the following friday. Both ate well and showed no signs of stress throughout the week in QT.
 
Cool,would like to seee some new tank pics.I was curious are you planning on restocking your tank as mostly sps or a mixed reef? by the way great setup.
 
Thanks. Ideally, I would love a nice SPS tank but that always seems to elude me. We'll just see what happens this time around - however, I'm tired of paying top dollar for small frags that die on me if you look at them the wrong way.

Anyway, I guess I can't hijack my own thread. The full tank shots come out kind of boring at this point because the corals aren't very grown out...
