I’m using Cupramine in a quarantine tank to treat ich or velvet, unsure. I have a heater in there a HOB filter and I moved my MP40 to the quarantine tank also. My questions are around Cupramine or copper getting into things and then I can’t use them again.

I want to be able to move my MP40 back to my display tank but is it now “copper only”? Have I ruined it? And the heater? And the tank itself because copper gets into the silicone edges? What about a glass or ceramic cup that I used in the copper quarantine tank?

I don’t want any inverts who are still in the display tank (or ourselves) to get sick because I didn’t do something right!
