Is TTM 13 days or 16 days?

I see instructions says:

Day 1 – Fish is placed in initial QT.

Day 4 – Roughly 72 hours later transfer the fish to new tank. The time of day you do the transfer is unimportant, but never exceed 72 hours from the last transfer. The temperature and SG of the new tank should match the old one perfectly, so you can just catch & release (no acclimation). Transfer as little water as possible with the fish.

Day 7 – Repeat.

Day 10 – Repeat.

Day 13Repeat and done (fish should now be ich free).



Is the Day 13 the done day (meaning theoretically you can transfer them out to DT or a holding tank), or do you have another 72 hours after day 13?

Reason is, I read in another post that TTM is a 12 day thing which makes me believe Day13 is the done day.
