Coppersafe seems to be impossible to pull out of the DT, I know Cupramine is harsher, but I want to use something that doesn't bind so much, and gets pulled out with GAC better. I tried Cuprisorb, I tried Poly-filter, Coppersage is taking forever!!!
Coppersafe is completely removed with water changes. Cupramine reacts badly with prime and other reducing agents, plus it causes more adverse reactions in delicate fish species. Given a choice, I would always select coppersafe or even copper power.
GAC is a poor way to remove copper, even with ionic forms like Cupramine.
