Seems like a lot of fish to QT all at once.
Specially if you are going to be adding them all to a new tank, usually you want to stagger adding fish to a new system so it adjusts to the new bioload gradually.

I'm an advocate of following ttm for all new fish and then a QT-less problems with ich and less use of chemicals.
