I had a hospital tank setup that I dosed with copper. I have since taken it down and drained it. I want to move my snowflake eel to another tank but I only have the heater and powerhead from the copper tank to use. Will these be ok if I wash them really good?

copper plates out on everything. There probably is some copper on those pieces. The amount is probably minimal though. If you are really concerned you can give the equipment a diluted muritic acid bath (available at pool supply stores).
