Well I dont have Cupramine. I have Coppersafe. Can someone please help me if you have used coppersafe with API copper testing???

Well, I am treating some icky fish with Mardel Coppersafe. I purchased a test kit, API copper test kit. I dosed as directed, and the test registers a .50ppm .... Coppersafe instructions advise a level of 1.5 - 2.0ppm What in the world is up with the dosing?? Does it tank time for the...

120g

the regal had developed this during QT, then went into the display and showed improvement. Now hes back in QT and Im soaking with selcon.

oh, I also forgot to mention my regal has HLLE :( Its minor for the time being. Do you think hypo will affect it? good or bad??

Al, yea I meant to say that I will be purchasing a new mandarin in about 2 weeks so he can spend 3 weeks in the QT before entering the display tank. My tank has been fallow since June 9th and I will re-introduce fish the first week of August. Hairy is pretty aggressive towards the mysis. That is...
