Copper Power(Endich) ACP0016B Blue Treatment for Marine Fish, 16-Ounce - 2 Pack

There are two main coppers available for usage in aquariums - Ionic & Chealted Copper. Ionic copper is what you find with Seachem Cupramine. It has a lower therapeutic range and is harder on fish.Chealted Copper has a larger effective range and safer to use on more sensitive fish like saltwater wrasses. After dealing with Fritz's unreliable Copper Safe medication, I switched over to Copper Power. Fritz's Copper Safe has an unreliable consistently with their copper so you don't know how potent the medication is until you start dosing and testing it. It lead to me overdosing my tank.Copper Power has the most consistent concentration of all the Chealted copper products on the market. I've never had issues ramping up the concentration or maintaining therapeutic ranges. It's regularly NOT available in stores and I'm not sure why. It is far superior to Seachem Cupramine and easier to use. I would highly recommend that you purchase a reliable test kit like a Hanna Checker Copper Test kit.Please note: The instructions on the bottle are incorrect. Effective range of Chealted copper is 1.5 - 2.0 PPM. 2.5 PPM would put you in an overdose situation. Always make sure you ramp up with Copper Power and use a quarantine tank as Copper is not safe for inverts.

This is one of the safest ich medicines out there. I use this to treat my marine fish with ich and other parasites. Be sure to use this product in a quarantine setup as it is not reef safe. The is no such thing as a reef safe ich treatment. I have had much success against marine ich and velvet using this product and will continue using it.

There is another brand I won't mention that I had always used and came across this product on R2R and figured to give it a try. Prior to this product and even with my Hanna checker, I would only get maybe 60-70% of my livestock through copper treatment. I tend to stock my multiple tanks (50G, 75G, 150G, 200G) slow so I can have 2-3 fish in QT at any given time so regularly treating and checking is routine. However, after switching to this product, I have not had a single loss in QT. I have treated wrasses, tangs, file fish, damsels, cardinalfish, mandarins and other gobies without any negative effects. A couple of ich magnets showed typical symptoms, but I believe in a prophylactic approach and slowly increase levels over about a week to which the spots fall off and don't show back up for the full 45 days in QT. Many will do 14 or 30 days, but I always go longer due to not wanting to tear tanks down catching fish to start all over again or going fallow...been there done that. Get this and follow the directions. Be sure to check reef2reef for various tips and tricks on using this.

No more snails in my tank

Copper Power is chelated, and is considerably safer for many types of fish, as compared to ionic copper products like Cupramine. Also, it has been shown by extensive hobbyist testing that this product is very consistent in concentration from batch to batch, which unfortunately is NOT true for some competing chelated copper products. Consistency is critical when you're trying to hit a narrow therapeutic window.

cant tell you how amazing this stuff is. Had marine ICH for ever and finally looked for a final solution to end it. I was scared it would forever mess up my refugium and cause long term problems but here is my outcome:I treated as the directions said. After 3 days my large snail died in the refugium, but my small snail and my hermit crab are still alive months later. my copepod population survived, my mushroom coral also lived. The most important part, The marine ich has never shown its face again. This stuff is amazing and I would strongly recommend it if you cant solve your crypto ICH problem. It will not work on flukes though as those parasites are not affected by copper. Prazi pro is the best for that.

Bought this product for an ich infestation in my FOWLER. Found it to be very effective when used with Hanna Checker for Copper. Used it on an adult emporator angelfish with no ill effects. The angelfish tolerated Copper Power with no problems. Was eating with gusto right through the treatment. Note however I only brought the concentration up 1.75 verified with the hanna checker. Other inhabitants were two clownfish, a flame hawkfish and a sohal tang. All fish survived the treatment.

Been ordering same stuff and it works great on my applications.Good product but poorly packaged, not sure if they sent it like this or it happened on its way. This is the first time it happened to me.Did contact the seller and will replace it. 3 stars for waste of time specially if you really need it. I would advice to keep an extra one just in case.
