There should be NONE. Copper is lethal to all inverts (corals, mollusks, etc).

copper is often used as a medication in FO tanks, but is deadly to all inverts. If he's ever medicated with copper to cure ich or something there may be traces of copper left that are enough to kill his inverts.

What kinds of fish are in this tank? Might they find snails and hermits as nice midnight snacks?
