I'll be housing black mollies in a tank for 2-3 days for them to settle down before acclimating them to saltwater. The tank was recently used for Cupramine treatment (19 days), after which I cleaned it with vinegar and since then it has been sitting dry and empty. As this is freshwater I must use tap water and Prime. Do you think it's possible for a minute amount of Cupramine to leach back from the silicone into the water to be reduced by Prime to get toxic?

Thanks!

A minute amount of leached amount should be fine.
 
Thanks 4FordFamily!
This is my first time getting mollies, so I just didn't want to kill them for a stupid reason ;Drowning
