Dosing Cupramine With Substrate in System?

Hi All,

How much does sand and rock effect the dosage of cupramine? How much does it leach back out and effect your copper parameters?

I am considering treating all my fish while in their holding tank but there is sand in there. I realize all sand would be killed / useless.

Thanks!

You will not be succesful using cupramine with ANY calcium carbonate based substrate..
That goes for all other forms of copper also..

Alright I was kind of figuring it would not work but wanted to get some opinions.

Thanks!
