copper and algea

[wanabebell]

I bought some live green algea for my agressive tank
but ive got a lil bit of copper in there can the algea survive with copper
if not its cool il just throw it in th reef until the copper is out

If you throw copper infested anything, you will kill all of the corals in your reef tank. I see you posted this over 5 hours ago... i hope you didn't put it in your reef tank... :scared:

get rid of all of the copper, run some carbon through the filter.
