Quarantine question

So i am moving my fish from my 90 to my new 180 and was planning on quarantining them all before the move out of my fear of ich. I had ich in the 90 almost a year ago now and pulled and treated the fish and left the tank fallow for 8 weeks. Since that I it hasn't shown back up. I don't necessarily want to quarantine my fish I'm just concerned that they could still have it and bring it to my new tank. If i did quarantine should I treat for it as a precaution even if the fish seems fine? My concern with that is the addedstress for possibly no reason. Please throw in some advice and opinions please. Oh and my fish are 3 squareback anthias, purple tang and a checkerboard wrasse.
 
If you've already treated these fish for Ich, went fallow in the 90, have QT'd every new fish purchase since then and aren't seeing any symptoms... then I would say just keep up the good work! :)

I agree, and I'm as paranoid as they come when ich is concerned. I can't remember ever advising anyone on this forum to skip any treatment. If ich shows up and nothing has changed, we're all in big trouble.
 
Hard to imagine that you wouldn't have seen symptoms in nearly a year if there was still Ich in your system.
 
I wouldn't think I would have ich either after almost a year....I'm just overly paranoid after losing my Achilles to it and never want to have to deal with it again.
