I have never used this product before, and I'm not a big fan of adding things that are unnecessary to my tank, however, it sounds pretty safe. If you want to use it as a preventative, it won't hurt, but if your fish are sick, quarenteen is recommended.

Add nothing and save your $$$.
Garlic seems to be the only thing all reefers agree is OK to add.

Don't start using that garlic to quickly. Read this article by Steven Pro.

that med is certainly NOT safe. Right in the 2nd line it says. "Copper". . I would suppose this would be ok for a QT preventive treatment.

Actually, it says....

" Copper, chemical, and drug-free way to prevent disease in saltwater aquariums."

There is no copper in the medication.

But I still would rather not put anything in the tank.
