can prazipro and copper safe be used at the same time in qt?
 
I believe that they can, but with extreme caution - and from what I recall, both should not be added to the tank on the same day.

Between the two, you can get some pretty serious bacterial blooms that will wreak havoc on your QT.

I've tried it - and consequently avoid it whenever possible.

~Bruce, who's very capable of being wrong - if Humblefish, Melypr1985 or 4FordFamily tell you any different ... listen to them, for Heaven's sake!
 
Might look at using general cure instead, it does not have the oxybispropanol (an alcohol) that can give you the bacterial bloom.
I used General Cure recently while at 2.0ppm Coppersafe in my QT and had no problems.
Make sure and increase aeration any time you add antibiotics (General Cure is metronidazole and praziquantel) or combine meds.
