Used copper in a QT tank... How do I get rid of the copper?
I'm wondering if there is anyway to safely use the powerhead and heater I used in the QT tank again? How do I make sure the copper is all "washed away"?

I remember a product called Cooper-zorb (or something like that) that is supposed to absorb copper products. It has been a long time ago and my memory can tend to be a little foggy.
