Hi all. Just wondering if I could use a brass hose-barb adapter for my python system. looks like this: 1/2Barbx3/4FPT Adapter

I know about copper leaching from the brass, but with the water being in contact with the piece for such a short time as the tank fills, will this leaching amount to anything significant? Thanks for your help.
