Thanks for the replys guys!! I did test the copper daily - sometimes twice daily! upon every water change and water adding! All of these fish plus 2 more were treated in a 55 gallon tank - FO tank. My 75 gal.(their home tank) has lr/ls/corals(small) - a wetdry/uv sterilizer/and no nitrates. A...

My 75 gal. fish have been in coppersafe for a month and now after being back in the main tank for 5 or 6 days they are showing signs of ick again - not as bad as the last time but dangit! :( Here's the list: Mandarin, sleeper goby, firefish, flame angel, Koran angel(juvi), blue tang, royal...

Why double the dose? What does that do? Thanks! :confused:

Quick questions! If it takes me 2 hours or so to do a water change on a 75 gal reef setup will the bacteria in my bio balls dry up or die? Will I have to cycle all over again? Also - if I tear down a 55 gal. tank with a W/D on it that was a HT used w/ copper for a month - remove all the...

Coppersafe seems to have worked great on the other fish - yellow tang, blue tang, Koran angel, flame angel, mandarin, sleeper goby, firefish, hermit crabs hanging in there too! They will all go back in 75 gallon main tank in a few days. Everyone is eating great! Coral Beauty is now in 10...

Do I need to remove the coral beauty from the 55 gal and put him in another tank by himself since he seems to be the only one having problems now and treat him accordingly? What about my other fish in that tank? Their 4 weeks of treatment for the origional ick problem are almost up. Can they go...

Oh yeah!I put a tank divider in to seperate all the other fish from beauty.I don't won't anyone picking on him when he can't defend himself,which he can't.Iam also keeping the lights off except for feeding time and a few minutes there after.

I have 3 Sealife Systems wet/drys. The skimmer works individually. It sits right in the sump part of the wet/dry. Also in the sump part is my return pump. The outflow part of my skimmer pours back over the polishing block or sponge next to the bioballs compartment. :cool:

Sounds like your doing everything right! I just got a Kent Maxxima RO/DI Hi-S that produces 35 gpd. It takes about 5 gallons of waste water or so per gallon produced. My orange line stays flowing! My blue line trickles but is pumping out the RO H20. The unit is not powered so the water...
