I was just wondering if I could mix these two together without hurting my fish. I have some loaches, barbs, and tetras. Thanks

As far as I know, loaches really won't like Coppersafe because they're scaleless. What are you trying to treat?

I've been treating with coppersafe for a while now and it doesn't seem to bother them at all...but what do I know. I'm treating them for flashing that a multitude of people on this site and others have said could be ich in the gills. They have no visible signs of having anything and haven't the entire time I've had them (around 3 months or so). I thought if it was ich that it would have shown itself by now. Anyways, I went to the fishstore and he told me to try and use melafix for a week to see if that has any effect because it has worked for him before. I had already had the coppersafe in the tank for two weeks so I didn't know if I should continue using that and wait to add the melafix or use them both at the same time.
Sorry this is so long and I hope it made sense.

on the original question, yes, you can mix them safely.

Hey, if they're not bothered now, then don't worry about anything I might say.
