Description

Seachem CupriSorb 100mL (Bagged) — Bag Filled with Resin Media To Remove Heavy Metals & Copper from Freshwater & Marine Fish Tanks

Seachem CupriSorb 100mL “Bagged” (SKU: 724980-205) is a specialised synthetic chelating resin engineered to rapidly extract copper and other toxic heavy metals from freshwater and marine environments. Unlike conventional activated carbon, CupriSorb selectively binds to heavy metals—including ionic, chelated, and organometallic copper compounds—without stripping beneficial trace minerals or disturbing pH and carbonate hardness.

Seachem CupriSorb 100mL pack is a compact size containing resin designed to efficiently remove both ionic and chelated copper, along with other heavy metals, from freshwater and saltwater aquariums. It can be regenerated for reuse and is ideal for removing copper after treatments, ensuring a safe environment for sensitive species like invertebrates. This 100mL edition comes pre-packaged in a durable, fine-mesh filter media bag, offering quick installation in power filters, internal filters, or small sump compartments. It acts as an emergency remediation media after medication treatments or as a continuous safeguard against tap water heavy metal contamination, turning dark black as it becomes saturated.

Usage & Application

When to Use

• Post-Medication Clean Up: Removes copper-based treatments safely after treating fish diseases.
• Tap Water Remediation: Extracts copper leached from household copper plumbing fixtures before adding water to the aquarium.

Placement & Flow Guide

• Place the pre-bagged media directly into a high-flow zone of your filter canister, internal filter, or sump chamber.
• Monitor resin colour change; when the media changes from yellow-amber to dark black, it indicates copper saturation and requires regeneration or replacement.
