LFS tank water

I may have gotten some of it in my tank.. this shoudnt be bad right?

As long as it didn't have any copper in it, you should be fine.

i dont think it would? i just put some snails and hermit crabs into my tank. i dont have anything else in the tank.

a LFS wouldnt dose copper in the tanks that hold snails and hermits, so I think you are ok

 

[blando]

Should be fine..id test just in case.. But dont put there water into yours tho next time down the road because you dont know what they might have in there water.

Any water with inverts in it won't have copper in it. Many LFSs treat their fish tanks with copper, so it's possible that the bags that the fish come in have copper.

it's not only copper to worry about, you could get parasites but it is not very common you should be ok.
