FWIW it's not uncommon to have a head get damaged or die during transport.

I'm not sure how quick coppersafe works to kill ich.

Yeah,I think 2 Koralia #4s are good for a 55-75 gallon.It's a very wide flow that disperses rather quickly.
But for a 120 gallon,definitely go with at least one or two more #4s.
