Copper in Display tank

[Gary LeCompte]

A few days ago I had all my snails died. Checked all levels everything ok.
Checked for Copper as per someone's advice. Copper checked .17 in Display tank.
Is this level a problem?
What can I do about it if it is a problem?

You can pick up some cuprisorb or run a poly filter pad to absorb the copper and whatever else may be in there. And while doing that try to determine where the copper is getting in whether it's a faulty ro membrane or a piece of equipment ect...
