[kschew1498]

Hi Reefer out there,

I need help. Recently I bought some tonga/staghorn and I suspect they are being poluted by copper accidentally!!

Besides cycling them for a longer period with activated carbon and doing major water change after cycling.....what else can I do??? I just can risk even a single drop! Any test kit to measure??

Please help me.....

Thanks ...do you guys test this parameter constantly? I am justifying if I should buy it! Never cross my mind that I need to test for copper content in a reef tank! How ignorance I am!

Nobody uses a copper testkit on a regular basis.

i think u can borrow from bros who are using copper treatment on their tanks...

those using copper treatment are advised to use cu test kits...they will be your target list
