Copper An Shrimp

[STEVE2493]

hi
i've just brought some plants from ebay,i emailed the seller asking if he use's anything with copper in the plants.

he repied saying he does use some thing that contains copper to kill snails.

how can i remove the copper from the plants?

i've had them soaking now for in a bucket for 2 days.

thanks

the soaking should do. just keep changing the water

just change the water every hour or so for a day and give the plants a quick rinse when you do that. Then after a day they should be safe.
