Description
Cupramine
Copper treatment for external parasites
Active at low concentration (does not precipitate)
Bound on amine so it is not as toxic to fish
100% Removable with carbon or Cuprisorb
Description
Cupramine effectively eradicates Oodinium, Cryptocaryon, Amyloodinium, Ichthyophthirius, and other ectoparasites of both freshwater and marine fish
It is superior to copper sulfate, chloride & citrate: it is non-acidic, less toxic to fish, remains in solution, and does not contaminate the filter bed
It is superior to chelates: it is fully charged (ionic), active at low concentrations, and is removable with carbon
There is more than a four-fold concentration gap between the minimal therapeutic dose (0
2 mg/L) and the toxic dose (0
8 mg/L)
Cupramine is easily removable with chemical filtration
It is highly effective and safe in freshwater as well as marine water
Directions
Before Treating Remove all invertebrates – these are extremely sensitive to copper and will not tolerate treatment with a copper-based medication
Turn off UV filters, ozone filters, and remove chemical filtration like MatrixCarbon and Purigen
Do not use in conjunction with any other medication
Do not use any products which contain reducing agents (conditioners, ammonia binders, etc
) while using Cupramine
Treatment If the bottle has a dropper cap, use 20 drops (1 mL) per 40 L (10
5 US gallons) the first day, wait 48 hours, then repeat
On non-dropper caps, each inner ring is 1 mL
In freshwater use half dose
Final copper concentration is 0
5 mg/L (0
25 mg/L in freshwater)
Leave at this concentration for 14 days
Do not redose without testing (MultiTest: Copper)
If tank has ever been treated with an ionic copper (e
g
copper chloride, sulfate or citrate), test copper level after initial dosing
Although most fish tolerate Cupramine to 0
8 mg/L, it is not advisable to exceed 0
6 mg/L copper
Finish the Full Treatment Ich, velvet, and many other parasites spend a large portion of their life cycle as a cyst that is immune to medication and hiding in the substrate of your tank
Remember that you need to finish the full treatment
