CCampbell57 is right.
Back in the “the day” the aquarium industry used a cheap grade of sealant. Anyone who added copper to a tank noticed that it turned that clear calk, blue. Therefore the assumption was that the blue color was actually copper that had seeped into the caulk and was forever trapped in it. But now the quality of the caulking compounds are resistant to pretty much any chemicals you can throw at it, including copper. So if your tank is more than 20 years old, I would tell you to be concerned.
But, Tizzo is giving you good advice because your gravel and anything else in that tank are a different story. You cannot ever remove all of the copper medication from your gravel. It may remain their “dormant” so to speak, until you have a drop in your PH, or sometimes even a rise in your temperatures. Then that copper can be released back into your tank. It’s sort of like a ticking bomb. If you can afford a new tank, then use your 30 gal as a QT. But if that is not an option right now, then I would say to absolutely throw away your sand/gravel and replace it with new. Don’t use any of the decorations that were in the tank either.
And if all of that is just not possible at this moment in time, then do a 100% water change, clean your gravel in salt water and scrub down everything as best you can. That tank will be fine for keeping fish, but it will be a risk if you put inverts in there. Don’t let me get your hopes up, but I have successfully used QT that had copper and converted them over to invert tanks without any problems. But I have been keeping, and studying, marine aquaria for more than 30 years and have experience that you might not have at this point. So telling you it worked for me does not mean it will work for you.
Good luck man.
