Cupramine is highly effective in eliminating oodinium, cryptocaryon, amyloodinium, ichthyophthirius, and various ectoparasites affecting both freshwater and marine fish. It outperforms copper sulfate, chloride, and citrate: it is non-acidic, less harmful to fish, stays dissolved, and does not pollute the filter bed. Additionally, it surpasses chelates: it is fully charged (ionic), operates efficiently at low concentrations, and can be removed using carbon.
KEY FEATURES:
DIRECTIONS: Before Treatment Remove all invertebrates, as they are extremely sensitive to copper and will not withstand treatment with copper-based medications. Turn off UV filters, ozone filters, and take out any chemical filtration like MatrixCarbon and Purigen. Avoid using in combination with any other medications. Refrain from using any products containing reducing agents (conditioners, ammonia binders, etc.) while administering Cupramine. Treatment If the bottle includes a dropper cap, administer 20 drops (1mL) per 40L (10.5 US gallons) on the first day, wait 48 hours, then repeat the process. For non-dropper caps, each inner ring corresponds to 1mL. In freshwater, use half the dose. The final copper concentration should be 0.5 mg/L (0.25 mg/L in freshwater). Maintain this concentration for 14 days. Avoid redosing without testing. If the tank has previously been treated with ionic copper (e.g., copper chloride, sulfate, or citrate), check the copper level after the initial dose. While most fish can tolerate Cupramine up to 0.8 mg/L, it is advisable not to exceed 0.6 mg/L of copper. Complete the Full Treatment Ich, velvet, and several other parasites spend a significant part of their life cycle as cysts that are resistant to medication and are concealed in the substrate of your tank. Remember, it's crucial to complete the entire treatment even if there are no visible parasites on the fish! After Treatment Cupramine can be effectively removed using carbon. Keep the copper-absorbing media in your tank for at least a week after the copper concentration has reached 0 to ensure that all remnants of the medication have been thoroughly eliminated.
