i'm fairly new to the hobby and after reading about copper with inverts have a bit of a concern.
I started a 36x12x12 tank with a standard 10 gallon sump/refugium, my plans are to fill with uncured live rock and let it do its thing for 3+ months before adding anything.my concern is that the tank was used previously (in storage for 5 years)and i dont know if it had copper introduced.
What are the chances copper could be leaching at undetectable levels?.
Is there a lifespan for copper leach from silicone?.
or am i being paranoid
any advice is appreciated
