How long after taking Minocycline do patients usually have to wait before starting Accutane?

or is there any gap in between ending minocycline and starting accutane?

You can stop taking the minocycline and start taking Accutane the very next day. There's no need to wait any amount of time in between. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion.
