Hello everyone, well as you know I broke down my 180 gallon aquarium and relocated all its inhabitants,
live rock and sand into a 29 gallon Nano Reef Aquarium. Everything is all fine and dandy except that the
Copper that I once treated my 180 gallon aquarium when it was a fish only has moved over and been released when I moved the sand. It's not at extremely high levels maybe pushing 0.05 but I lost my diamond goby because she sifts through the sand and came in direct contact with the
copper :-( I am already using Seachem Coprisorb and was wondering if the Poly Filter will remove
Copper as well if so I'm off to the store to purchase some tomorrow. The website indicates that it does. I'm just curious to see if anyone has had an experience with this. I want another Diamond Goby and I just don't want her to die again.
Parasite Medications
Medications such as 1)
Copper Sulphate, 2)
Copper Sulphate and Formalin, 3) Quinine Sulphate and 4) Malachite Green often cause serious toxicity problems for fish after their administration. These and other medications can remain in the water for long periods causing toxic overdosage. The POLY-FILTER will remove parasite medication rapidly without removing or effecting beneficial
trace elements from the water. For parasite treatment using chellated forms of medication, remove the POLY-FILTER and add the prescribed medication to the water. Allow sufficient time for a cure of the diseased fish. Replace the POLY-FILTER and add the prescribed medication to the water. Allow sufficient time for a cure of the diseased fish. Replace the POLY-FILTER, preferably in a power filter and the remaining toxic medication will be removed from the water by the POLY-FILTER. After three days remove the POLY-FILTER and replace with a new POLY-FILTER. Save the POLY-FILTER used for medication removal as it can be reused for subsequent medication removal of parasite medication.
Do not use the POLY-FILTER exposed to parasite medication again for general maintenance or antibiotics removal.
When using non-chellated forms of medication allow 12 hours for water circulation and then install the POLY-FILTER. Continue to add half the recommended dosage every 12 hours thereafter until the fish are cured. This process will prevent the
copper from precipitating out of solution which causes dangerous toxic waste build-up and sharp
PH drop in the aquarium water. To prevent overdosing,
copper levels must be checked each time with a test kit prior to adding more
copper.
Will the Poly Filter Media Remove Copper?
