Next time, be sure that paladin is judging Light, roll Renews on him and yourself, and flash the PC victims.
This really isn't neccessary in 10 man assuming you have DPS geared/skilled for the encounter. It's better to ensure everyone lives (which casting larger heals will do) than it is to keep everyone on as low health as possible in order for minimum healing from leeching swarm, any decent DPS (especially if you're running with six and have bloodlust up) will far out damage any healing Anub will do. Of course you aren't aiming to keep everyone on full health but there's simply no need to cut it that close.

I haven't done the 25 man encounter but from videos it seems that it is much more important to keep everyone on their minimum health without dying than is needed on the 10 man fight.

Especially as this is the guys first run through I'd say playing it safe is the best bet.
