Ok I started my tank up waited before adding rock or any invertebrates and nothing would stay alive. I bought the API copper test kit and it read 0ppm but I bought a poly filter and it turned blue stating it had copper in it. So I removed the rocks ran the filter with a new poly filter, still it turned blue. Come to find out instead of using plastic fittings I used brass (a copper alloy duh). So now I'm back to square one and have broke my tank completely down. How to I make sure I remove all the copper or that it's not bonded to anything? I am going to buy new rock, sand and bio balls. What else is there to do as a precaution? Any info would be great thanks!
