I had brass ball valves running through my tank and couldn't keep any inverts. I even lost a royal gramma and a clown. I had another clown i had to peel off of a powerhead intake. I now have a new royal gramma, the same clown i had and a new one, a sleeper head goby, a purple lobster, a coral banded shrimp and a turbo snail that has been alive for almost two weeks. The last one i had only lasted five days. I have been running cuprisorb for i can't remember how long. It seems to be working. are there any other ways to get rid of brass any quicker? I just hope that the cuprisorb will be able to pull out enough brass for the tank to be invert safe. I do not want to have to start over because of the brass leeching into the rocks. is this a never ending process, or will i someday be able to keep soft inverts like cleaner shrimp and maybe anemones? Other stuff too. Thanks.
