    Copper dosage

    Hmm, I use copper safe. Again it is chelated, but at the 1 tea per gal. Has been effective. I have added a 1/4 of a tea extra when improvement wasn't seen in 2 days. After that it never showed again

    Agreed. Most copper is dosed 1 tea to 4 gallons. Also if u have sand or alot of decor this will absorb copper making it less effective.
