Mardel Coppersafe

Can I please just say that I feel the point was missed completly with MY thread? I simply asked if the CopperSafe would hurt my urchin... I didn't expect this to turn in to a big long thing of he said/she said, he uses/she uses.... come on. I simply wanted advice on fixing my tank before I put more fish in it

 

+1. Right on target. I have 4 shrimp that keep ich from happening. And yes stress is the destroyer of life.

 

Honestly, I don't understand the reasoning to the word Coppersafe? Does it mean there is NO copper or does mean that it IS copper but it's safe in a reef system? Copper is not safe in a reef as far as everything I've ever read on the subject but you can treat fish in a separate tank with copper. The BIG problem is catching the fish in a reef. Generally I feel and I say this as an opinon that if the fish is easy to catch there's a good chance he's too far gone. That's just my opinion. That's why I preferred to use a product that was highly recommended and totally reef safe so I could treat the fish and also any other parasites on any other fish. Actually I had just moved up from a smaller tank at the time and one of the fish showed signs of the stress ich.
