Seachem CupriSorb™ is a narrow spectrum, synthetic adsorbent based filter material for removing copper and heavy metals from either freshwater or marine water
It extracts all types of copper, including chelated copper, and remains effective until it turns a deep blue-black colour. It may be regenerated repeatedly. If placed in continuous service, it will gradually extract even precipitated copper and make invertebrate culture possible in tanks previously heavily treated with copper
CupriSorb™ is a powerful copper specific chelating resin
Use 500 mL for every 1,200 L to remove up to 15,000 mg (12 ppm) of copper. For best results, CupriSorb™ should be placed so as to maximize the flow of water through it. To remove undetectable substrate leaching copper keep CupriSorb™ in use for at least 2 weeks after copper tests report no copper
Use in a canister filter, chemical filtration module, box filter, or any high flow area of a trickle filter
Exhaustion is indicated by a pronounced discolouration of the beads to a deep blue black colour
When exhausted, CupriSorb™ may be discarded or regenerated
