Alright, I honestly don’t understand what ionic gradient is, but I think I get the point that the 0.2 is an average and it can fluctuate withih the day. But, with that being said isn’t the “error” also worth mentioning as well? This is especially helpful for those with ionic copper, because if the fluctuation rate is at 0.05 (which means that your concentration could drop to 0.45), doesn’t that mean that it has a chance to fall below the therapeutic level and therefore restarting your daily counter of copper?
Sand may not be the best thing to use with Cupramine. This is why I prefer Copper Power – wider therapeutic range. You can ramp it all the way up to 2.5 ppm, and most fish are still going to be fine with it. So, just treat around 2 - 2.25 ppm to compensate for the possibility of copper leaching
