I wouldn’t go out of my way to transfer copper treated water to my DT, but a little bit isn’t an issue. One thing to be wary of is many QT are held at a lower salinity than the DT. Rather than acclimate them up, consider changing water in the QT with DT water over a few days, that will reduce the copper as well.Fish are in medicated water (with copper). If I transfer to DT will I introduce copper that might be harmful to inverts or is it so diluted (120g) that it wouldn’t matter?
Thanks. I was planning to net them out of the water so it would just be what water clings to them.I wouldn’t go out of my way to transfer copper treated water to my DT, but a little bit isn’t an issue.

Just be sure the water matches up well between the tanks, that small amount of copper won’t harm anything....Thanks. I was planning to net them out of the water so it would just be what water clings to them.
Of course. Full drop acclimate.Just be sure the water matches up well between the tanks, that small amount of copper won’t harm anything....
