Re: Aquatic Plants Digest V5 #407
Hello Davorin,
Copper toxicity is EXTREMELY dependent on water composition -- hardness,
other ions present, form of copper, etc.
Furthermore, different organisms have VERY DIFFERENT susceptibility to
copper, so that no generally valid "safe limit" can be provided.
Best,
George
