Hi everyone,
I am looking for a little advice. My juvi porky puffer came down with ICH. We currently have him in a 10g QT tank with good water (0 Ammonia, 0 nitrates, and 0 Nitrites). We have been treating with Mardel Coppersafe and also have the API Copper test kit. No where on either the medication or the test kit does it say what the effective concetration is. My husband just tested the copper and the levels are at .25, and we all know this is too low.
Can anyone tell me the proper concetration to keep the copper at? I don't want to keep the fish suffering, and while he seems in good spirits and is eating, I would like to properly dose the condition.
Thanks for any help!
Paula
