  Description
SeaChem Cupramine ™ effectively eradicates ectoparasite of both freshwater and marine fish. It has all the advantages of copper sulfate and chelated copper, but not the disadvantages. Like copper sulfate, it is fully ionic and effective at low concentrations. The cupric (Cu+2) charge is fully active. Like chelates, it is safe for fish and is not precipitated in the filter bed. Unlike both, there is more than a 4x concentration gap between the minimal therpeutic dose and the toxic dose. Unlike copper salts, it is stable in the aquarium, and, unlike chelates, it is easily removed by chemical filtration. Unlike other copper products, it is both highly effective and safe in freshwater as well as marine water. It does not damage the filter bed. Cupramine™ contains 10,000 mg/L of copper and 100 mL treats over 500 gallons. Do not use in conjuction with ParaGuard™. Test for copper with our MultTest: Copper™ kit. Marine or freshwater use.

Caution: Turn off your UV sterilizer while treating with Cupramine. UV will break up the ionic bond in Cuprimine; causing it to be much more toxic.

Excellent!
Best Ever by ELLIOTT
Experience Level: Expert
Posted on 10/4/2007 from EAST WENATCHEE, WA UNITED STAT
Comments: The fact that you can safely use this product with more sensitive fish (ie angels, etc.) is a definite plus. The instructions are easily understood, dosing and testing is simple as well, and the product is easily removed with water changes and carbon. It will not stick to any sort of surfaces as well. Best of all, it cured my fish!
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

100% Effective by chrisO

Comments: Used Cupramine in my quarantine tank to treat ich that was infesting my powder blue tang (quarantined all my fish). Ich was no longer visible after the third day and the tang started gaining returning to a healthy weight. The Cupramine did make my skimmer produce thick clouds of microbubbles, but otherwise had no ill effects on any of the livestock and is a small price to pay. Definately recommended.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
