copper test result help

[JennyGutt]

hi everyone. im treating fish in QT for ich with coppersafe in 10 gallon tank. ive slowly dosed over last 2 days instead of rasing it all at once. this reading is with the coppersafe box recommended amount which is 2.5 tsp for 10 galons and 1/2 tsp more because it didn't look like it was at the 1.5-2 range from just the recommended amount. im starting to worry im putting too much though. what does this look like to yall? what range? I hate color tests...lol

I haven't used coppersafe, but can get you some help.

I apologize I'm not fully up on this, but the one thing I know is that you have to use the "right" copper test for the type of copper you have. I don't recognize that color card, but believe Coppersafe is a chelated copper. Make sure your copper test kit can measure for chelated copper. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

If your using the right test,I would read that at 2.0 -3.0.

That's the right test alright. It's hard for me to read as well, but I agree with kireek on the reading.
