Default Quarantining a Wrasse

I have had several Ich outbreaks over the years after introducing new fish and as a result I almost always quarantine any new introductions. I plan to introduce a Banana Wrasse (Thalassoma lutescens) to my FOWLR aquarium after quarantining it. I know these fish like to have a sand bed to burrow in at night but what I am concerned about is how this fish will be able to cope in a bare bottom quarantine tank. Should I be concerned about leaving this fish in a quarantine tank with no substrate for the quarantine period and will doing so cause this fish unnecessary stress and possibly its demise?
