Default What to do, what to do?

Here's my dilemma, as some of you know Doofus has ich and the plan is to treat him (and the rest of the fish) before being transfered into his new quarters.
I can treat with cupramine in a hagen 48g (4ft long), that's risky because he won't be happy in such a small tank.
I can empty the 175g of all rock, sand and corals leaving the fish in there and treat with hyposalinity but I risk a big ammonia spike with the die off of whatever inverts get missed in the tank cleanout and doing large (over 50%) water changes would be hard because I can only make up 60g of new water at a time
Any other options out there that anyone can think of?
