I'm probably out of my depth again, but we used that stuff on the farm to cure hoof rot in sheep.

I remember it was a vibrant blue solid that dissolved readily in water. And the water didn't seem noticeably more viscous.

You can also use it to put a quick coat of copper on steel.

EDIT: It just dawned on me what the signifigance of the "penta hydrate" is. Close but no cigar.
