CT_ Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 (edited) Has anyone used cuprisorb with a planted and fertilized tank? I'm a bit worried about it adsorbing more nutrients than just Cooper. Edited September 4, 2022 by CT_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwallace Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Your right to be worried though it would probably be fine. It is powerful stuff. I would never use it unless maybe I was trying to remove a copper based med from the tank. It's definitely not a constant use product. Keep in mind that the vast majority of aquarium chemicals are NEVER necessary and are basically a money grab and can do more harm than good. It is my opinion that we should never use any chemical without a specific and temporary purpose in mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT_ Posted September 4, 2022 Author Share Posted September 4, 2022 Yeah in this case I'm having trouble keeping inverts alive in all my water. I've tried everything short of buying an ro unit (I'm using water through a carbon filter but the internet says that won't catch copper). Cherry shrimp live for a couple months dieing off slowly. Sometimes I get babies but they only last a few days. In my other tank I can't keep nerites alive longer than a week or two. This is a last resort test. Before I go to for everything which I don't want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scapexghost Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 (edited) I think if it absord nitrates or potassium that would be the main selling point. So your probably fine Edited September 4, 2022 by Scapexghost Phosphates not potassium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
