NEED your advice A.S.A.P...
 

Can "Coppersafe" product be used with puffers (Dogface or porcupine puffers(scaless fish)? :question:

I'm getting mixed answers from LFS here. Does anyone know? Has anyone treated puffers with copper?

Which copper did you use?


Thanks a bunch in advance

Now I was told that you can't use copper with Balla sharks or loaches in the fresh water systems and they are considered scaleless. So I would say No. for them I was to use ecolibrium for fresh water but I think they also make a salty one too

Is a box fish scaleless?

Yup, the boxfish is definately a scaleless fish and same with the puffers. I think maybe even Lion fish, but that I'm not sure.


I'm not sure if sharks also fall into this same catogory. But has anyone treated boxfish, lion fish with coppersafe product?

Is coppersafe more harsh then Cupramine? Anyone tried on any scaleless fish?

I know Copper + Lionfish = bad news, so if a Lionfish is a scale less fish and puffers are a scale less fish, then I don't think I'd be comfortable enough to try it.

aren't tangs scale less? I know the powder blue is, and it is one fish prone to ich, which is treatable with copper. Just thought I'd through that out there.

What is a through :question:

I know tangs dont like copper and may even stop eating while in copper the first few days but I dont tink they are scalessfish.

Anyone know for sure?

Not scaleless, but very thin skinned. :eek:

Yeah thats what I thought.

Damn its so confusing different copper & different test kits hey. Damn not very accuate either, damn.

Anyone treated with cupramine before? How the heck did you figure this test kit out. Damn these color charts.

Although people never wanta talk about their problems they have come across ending in losses. Any help would help.

Please pm me if shy. Thanks a bunch
