boiling live rock to remove copper

[rsantangelo3@co]

will boiling some small pieces of live rock remove copper from it??

[funkngroovy]

why would copper be in live rock? Boiling live rock will make it dead rock.

No copper can't be removed by boiling. I would look in to cuprasorb or a muriatic acid baths as a more likely solution but never tried removing copper myeslf

I wouldnt even mess with it. get new rock.

Cooper will leach out of the rock for a very long time. Either use it in a fowlr tank or toss it.
