Tank treated with copper needs alot of carbon treatment to effectively remove them.

Then again no guarantee because silicon is known to trap copper

Best solution buy a new tank

common zoa, gsp, xenia, mushroom

note that softie spread like wildfire

make sure you get something you like

i recommend nicer zoa, lumi gsp, pulsing xenia, uncommon shroom(eg metalic color), yuma or even rics

its easy to buy them, takes effort to grow them, but a hell to remove them
