Hi all, I've a 300gallon fowlr tank. It was treated with copper before. What i want to ask is that can a stingray survive if it was previously treated with copper. The brand of the copper i used is cupramine.
 
You can try and remove any copper in the rocks/sand using cuprisorb and poly filters.
I’ve heard similar to lion king’s comment from others: water changes with cuprisorb and poly filters seems to work (at least in some cases).

Some threads with examples:
 
Have you done anything to remove the copper from the water/tank? Have you tested levels to see if they are still positive?
I've done a water change and turned on my protein skimmer recently. I will test the levels later on.
