I am am currently running a QT with copper and about to do a water change using my w/c water from main display.
I have two 13 gallon reservoirs i usually use. One to drain 13 gallons from the sump and another would have fresh mixed saltwater that I pump back in sump. Because it is from the sump it is pretty clean. It is not sanded vacuum type water change.
I would then have to treat the w/c water with copper before adding to my QT. Then simply pull 13 gallons out of my 29 gallon QT and pump the newly copperated water into QT.
So far so good.
My question is will my regular rinse out of my plastic reservoirs be enough to remove the copper before refilling with RO and mixing for my next w/c in my main display tank? These reservoirs are hydroponic type plastic. I would rinse with a sprayer attached to a water hose attached to a spigot.
I am probably overthinking this but just better to ask and be safe than sorry.
Thanks in advance.
