CUPRISORB 250ml – Regenerable Chelating Resin for Copper Removal in Aquariums
CupriSorb 250ml by Seachem is a high-performance chelating resin designed to remove ionic and chelated copper and other heavy metals from freshwater and marine aquariums. Unlike traditional ion-exchange resins, CupriSorb acts with superior precision and speed, making it ideal for use in sensitive reef tanks or in emergencies involving copper contamination.
Each 250 ml can remove up to 7,500 mg (12 ppm) of copper in 600 liters of water. It also eliminates copper leached from substrates, supporting long-term detoxification. Once spent, CupriSorb changes to a deep blue-black, clearly signaling when regeneration is needed.
This resin is fully reusable through a simple regeneration process, offering a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution for long-term aquarium health.
Key features:
Removes free and chelated copper, plus other heavy metals
Faster and more effective than carbon
Safe for marine, freshwater, and reef tanks

Color change indicates exhaustion
250 ml format treats up to 600 liters
Fully regenerable for indefinite reuse

Usage instructions:
Use 250 ml per 600 liters. Place in high water flow areas such as filters or reactors. For substrate-bound copper, leave in place for at least 2 weeks after copper levels reach zero in tests.
Regeneration:
Soak in non-metallic container with 2 cups water and ½ cup muriatic acid
Let sit for 1 hour, rinse thoroughly
Repeat until the original color returns
Add baking soda to neutralize, wait for foaming to stop, then rinse again
