    Yup I used Chelated Copper in my DT. It was about 7 months ago, I run carbon, and have hermits, snails, an Emerald crab and a cleaner shrimp in there now. They are all fine and have been in the tank for like 2 to 3 months now.

    I am not sure if its different for the different medications, but with my recent HT I had to do, both the types of copper I had were to be at 2.0ppm, not .2. Just as a heads up.
