Copper gate valve OK?
I just installed a copper gate valve and remembered I'd read here that
copper is a no-no in ponds because it can kill the fish. What's the opinion he will one short length of copper (actually, it's brass, that has copper in it) cause problems in my 400 gallon pond? I wanted a PVC valve, but it wasn't available at the time of my purchase... |

While copper is dangerous to fish, if you do regular water changes I doubt the levels would be able to build up to anywhere near a toxic level. San Diego Joe 4,000 - 5,000 Gallons.
