<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Blissskr, post: 1632187, member: 34882&quot;]In a fresh water tank a few copper coins isn&#039;t likely to harm the fish only if you used a large amount would I worry about fish health. In fact some people used to put a few copper cents in to ward off ick and other diseases and kill pest snails in tanks. My father did this back when I was a child and he had about 25 tanks breeding fancy guppies. Aquari-sol an aquarium medication is based off copper for fresh water fish tanks also used to treat ick and other diseases.</p><p>If a salt water tank forget about copper you&#039;d be risking a disaster. Also another caveat as mentioned earlier copper coins in a tank will kill any snails and dwarf shrimp that you may keep as pets, the copper can also leech into the silicone used to hold the tank together and make the tank unsafe in the future for invertebrates.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
