Welcome to 3reef! 
Bruce, I'm thinking no, since the fish would have the copper on it and in it, when you put it back into the tank and a minimal amount of copper and/or brass(I've found) will kill inverts
Txreefgirl, snails are included in that list of inverts. | |

Let me tell you first hand that brass is a no-no. I had to brass fittings in my system for about a month. To this day I still cannot put inverts in the tank (4 months of placing poly filters in it every week to rid the tank of Copper). Kills them immediatly. Might be worth a try but sometimes the local fish store (LFS) can place them in a medicinal tank for you.
Just something I have gone through. | |
