Protect your fish from external parasites with Fritz Coppersafe 118ml, available at Brisbane Discus & Aquariums. This powerful, copper-based aquarium treatment is designed to control and eliminate common external parasites—helping your fish recover quickly and stay healthy.
Fritz Coppersafe 118ml is essential for treating outbreaks and maintaining a healthy aquarium environment. Always use a copper test kit to monitor copper levels during treatment, especially if you keep sensitive species or invertebrates.
Directions:
Use 5 ml (1 tsp) per 4 U.S. gallons (15 L), or 8 oz (1 cup) per 190 U.S. gallons (337.5 L). This dose maintains a total copper level of ~2.0 ppm, no redosing is necessary for up to one month. Treatment time will vary based on the infection you are treating.
- For best results, use Coppersafe® in a quarantine tank
- Remove ion-exchange resins and heavy metal adsorbing filter pads during treatment.
- Discontinue use of skimmer during treatment
- Carbon does NOT need to be removed during treatment
- UV Sterilizer can be used during treatment
- Use with caution on aquariums with scaleless fish and other copper-sensitive livestock – do not use Coppersafe® solution with fish species that have a known sensitivity to copper.
- No contraindications: can be used with all of our other products and meds including ACCR and Complete
- NOT SAFE FOR USE WITH INVERTEBRATES: corals, snails, shrimp, clams, jellyfish, other crustaceans or molluscs; remove these types of livestock before dosing
- Coppersafe® may be harmful to plants and amphibians
- Easy measuring: the 8 oz and 16 oz bottle caps are approximately 5 mL volume
- Only one dose is needed to achieve the therapeutic level of 1.5 – 2.0 ppm copper. No second dose is needed during treatment.
- To prevent accidental overdose in an unknown volume of water, add approximately 1/4 or 1/2 dose and test before adding additional copper.
- If water changes must be performed during treatment, treat the volume of replacement water with Coppersafe® to maintain the therapeutic level
- Overdosed? Perform large water changes immediately until a test kit reads below 2 ppm copper
- Test with a reliable copper test kit that measures above 2.0 ppm Total copper, or a kit that measures chelated copper
- After treatment, remove copper with water changes, or use a copper-specific adsorbing resin or polyfilter until the copper level returns to zero.
Note: Consult a veterinarian or fish expert for assistance in diagnosis of disease causing organisms and treatment options.
