FREE AT LAST! Of copper that is!

[jade2122]

As many of you know in January when doing my upgrade to a 90 I managed to kill all of my coral (tons of sps colonies), killed all my inverts and ruin my live rock with copper. Since then has been a tiring battle to remove the copper from tank, silicone, etc... So I have gotten all new live rock, filled and emptied the tank numerous times, spent a ton on copper removing media/pads and eventually had to spend hours scrubbing everything down in pure vinegar (whew!) and am now copper free. I have had a piece of sps in there for about 6 days now and it is doing great, so it seems that I am finally home free! So now I am asking for a little help, there were a handful of people that offered to help me out with some frags before; either of stuff they had gotten from me before or just any extra frags they might have available. I don't have alot of extra money right now but can try to compensate you as much as possible. I am just happy to have my tank running again!!!! Thanks to you all and sorry for the long post

thank you to everyone, it has been a tough time for sure, this hobby has never pushed me so close to giving up, but just the fact of having so many people there to help me out helps. i will take any sps frags for cheap, just trying to get my tank going again. will definately post some pictures soon once i get some more corals going in it.

If you have the lighting for SPS's, I can hook you up with a few frags. I even have a nice, but small, ORA Blue Tort you can have.
