I don't agree with a lot of the logic that's going on right now. Quite clearly NLS does not have the ingredient "Copper" in there food it's some sort of ionic compound involving copper. Now look at the ionic bond of the most prevalent item needed for salt water... salt... NaCl... Sodium Chloride. Sodium is a highly reactive metal and Chlorine in its gaseous state is highly toxic but some how both of these "evil elements" work together to sustain life in our reef systems. Are you sure that your not all going on a Witch hunt because you see the word copper?

Are any of you chemists that have done studies on the effect of "Copper sulfate" or any other copper compounds on our reefs for that matter? If not, please stop accusing NLS (and every other company that has a copper compound in there ingredient list) of trying to kill our reefs, because that's just plain ridiculous.

See this is what Im getting at....a little bit here, a little bit there...a little bit in the food and suddenly its not such a little amount anymore.
Your telling me that for some reason, the people who provide the products so we can care for our reefs are adding copper so that our reefs crash so we stop using their product... .
