Your tank should be fine after being fallow for 9 weeks. Hopefully you have learned the lesson and will quarantine in the future. No point in going fallow and still continuing to add "dirty" fish.

His fish had Marine Velvet IIRC. Ich isn't even "the bad one", MV is waaaaaay scarier and much more deadly simply because it kills so fast. Fish can also be a carrier for MV without showing any signs themselves. The next worst thing about MV is that treatment options are Formalin dips (my preferred method) or copper treatment (which I won't do). Neither are reef-safe, and neither are very simple as each treatment has its own complications.
