if you want a tank that will never have any crustacenas, it should be okay. and by never, i really do mean never. not worth it imo.

i dont mean to be argumentative (is that even a word?) but i dont see the point in testing water for copper. the copper is in the rocks and leaches over time. you might not even detect copper with a dinky hobby kit, but it's still there in the rocks.
