Cupermine REACTION

[RuggerReef]

I just want to see if I got this right. When medicating with Cupermine, can I use seachem prime for ammonia spikes? If not, what ammonia detoxifer product can be?

No and none. Water changes only. Need to add the correct dose of copper to the fresh water before putting in tank. Easier this way.

Also, saltwater treatment requires higher dose than suggested on the label. See Seachem forum for exact dosage. I believe it's 4 drops per gallon for saltwater.

I use a syringe and measure the ml. Drops never seem accurate. Also spread the dosage out more than the 2 days directions say. I split up doses over 5 days to hit final target of .5 or a little less.
