Ich/Ick in tank

[Cal_stir]

Ich has 4 stages in its life cycle, one stage is dormant and it can remain in that stage for months on your rock and in your sand.
A tank must remain fish free for @ 80 days to ensure the life cycle is complete and the ich is gone.

so if i remove the fish and treat them. I can just leave all my inverts in the tank with all the live rock and critters and the ick will die off?

[Cal_stir]

Yes, the ich will continue its cycle and as long as there are no fish for it to host it will cycle through and be gone, this can take up to 2 months.

Iv heard that I can get a cleaner wrass.. will that kill it all off? or will i still have some kind of a cycle in my tank?

A cleaner wrasse may help control it, but it will not eradicate it.

+1, more of a preventative than a curative.
