Is jungle medicated anti-bacterial food reef safe? I ask b/c most people are saying its ok to use in a display tank, but on the bottle it says not to be used with ornamental invertebrates. I have a blue linkia in my tank. I have a yellow tang that has septicemia and seems to be getting better but I wanted a little insurance so to speak so I was thinking of using this product.

do you know if the food has copper in it, that would be the only reason it wouldnt be safe for inverts i believe, im not familiar with that type of food, maybe it says what it contains on the side?
 
The medicine in it is as follows: sodium suifathiazole and nitro furazone.

In the ingredients I saw the words copper sulfate which scared me but, now that I look, a lot of foods have that in it.
