She is treating them with copper, the fresh water dips is an attempt to give the fish a bit of relief

I have no idea if this would be an issue but I am just trying to think ahead of "Murphy's law". I almost have a feeling that you might have to, but really don't know for sure.

Anyone else have any advise on this?
Probably not a good idea while the fish are still undergoing copper treatment. Adding too many things to the water could make the water quality go south.
