looks cool but copper piping is not fish friendly

Then we better remove it from our house plumbing in almost every house in the U.S.. It doesn't dissolve into the water, it's a solid, if it did we all wouldn't be able to use our tap water and our pipes would dissolve away.

copper is good for human but not fish while the plastic such as PEX pipe and PVC is the opposite. although both types are rated safe for human use.
you treat you fish tank water correct?
using copper for potable water is awesome and best way but not so great for fish.
yes im sure no fish will die suddenly with that set-up the link has.
it will be just like we human living in big city's polution, it is safe but not great for us to breath

LOL of course they dont disolve, copper kills bacterias and makes water that pass thru it safer water and even better tasting water out of tap water.

I'm fine with all my copper pipes and will always be safe. And my fish also.

Looked good but I would put a strainer on the top. Fish could still get into that thing and then you would really have a mess. I like the idea of it in the sump so nothing will bother it at all.
