I got the live rock cheap made a beautiful scape in my qt which the fish love! Did 2.0ppm copper safe. Finished that 3 weeks ago. I did a copper test today it showed zero. So? I know people are doing experiments on this. What do you think allow it in the display? Or just kee it for qt only. Obviously my display has corals

Oooh great question. You always hear that you can't use copper rocks in your display but come on, they can't keep leeching forever. Tagging along!

Also just my common sense guess but if your not seeing any copper leeching, maybe wait a week and retest with another test kit, still 0 then I'd say your good!

I agree. I plan on bringing the same exact scape over to my display and let the fish have what there used too!
