when treating with coppersafe it says it treats a 100 gallon system for one month ,but at what level .A level of copper has to be maintained for 20- 30 days to kill the the disease in question. The problem i have is that the test kits that are available out there only test for non chelated copper . when treating with a product like this how do know what level its at.When the the fish shed there protective slime coat this gives a chance for the medication to work ,but what happens when the level of copper falls below the therapudic level, it comes back with a vengeance. The product in a quarintined environment to treat with would be coppersulfate ,this product can be monitored,but has to be checked daily to be effective.Troy are systems do have rock in them and we are using other treatments in these systems.
