Copper question

[kevsqn]

just wanna ask since copper doesnt evaporate.

If i dosed to therapeutic level, theoretically it should remain at therapeutic level throughout the 30 days right? Given that i dont have copper absoring medias like sand, rock, polyfilter,etc..

That is correct. You should only have to add copper if you do a water change. If you do this, it is important to add the copper to the make up water prior to putting it into the tank.

I believe siporax will. A sponge may absorb a small amount but if you shoot for the high end to start you should be just fine.
