which copper

[Seagars]

i am having to treat my fish in a qt tank due to ich and what is the most recommended treatment to use in those tanks? Copper and if so which one?

The attached link is a must read, but copper is the easiest treatment to get a hold of to treat ich and Cupramine is what I would recommend. Good luck!

I prefer a chelated copper product, such as Coppersafe or Copper Power. You will also need an API copper test kit to measure it with.

If you can't get CP then Coppersafe is my recommendation for sure. Though if you know for sure it's ick, then TTM is my favorite method of treatment for that.

I don't like Cupramine; it's too harsh. I've had much better luck with CopperSafe. Good luck.

better than copper power?

Copper Power & Coppersafe are both chelated copper, so I would say they are pretty much equal.

Ditto on chelated copper, either Copper Power or Copper Safe.

Best of luck.
