its oki, but do a 50% water change after your fishes get better.

don't overdose, it will harm your fishes.

ya its ok

u should check your water parameters and make sure u do the proper method of introducing your fishes into the tank.

ani wrong move which gifs them shock will end up with a weak immune system prone to white spots

but remember after that, trace amount of copper can still be found in the tank, and that may kill off other inverterbrates the next time you decide to introduce them. so....think twice. its a catch 22 situation.

I've heard some warning against using copper for treatment, there were thoughts that the fish will also get stress from the copper treatment, as in fresh water dips, it may weaken the fish further.....

why not use aquapharm's cure ich....it's a none copper based medication

Hi,Guys

Have tried a lot medication must still did not help,got no choice but to use

copper safe as a last resort.I think the problem with me is that I never qurintine the fish before put into the tank.

Just a tot , if all your fish gets ich, it could be your water condition, no medication will help if they are in a stressed environment. You may want to check that out.

Bro, just a reminder that the rocks would actually absorb a certain amount of copper, den if you use it next time to keep a reef tank, it may leech back into the water...

Juz my $0.02...

Take the infected fish out and keep it in a quarantine tank...then does the copper and wait for a few weeks for it to get better before your introduce them back in. This way may be safer dont you think so?

Ya it's a good idea to take out the fishs and Quaranite them.But too bad I already

introduce coppe safe into my tank,and look like it will killed the good bacteria too

.And my tank have start all over again.The other bad thing is after introduced for

a day I don't see major improvement to the fish disease.
