They either went in on monday or it was a week ago I dont know which. He was in dinsey world all last week. Wish I could say for sure. I dont think Ive ever seen clams die so fast.

Man, if it was monday, that's fast! It's amazing that Cu dissolves so fast. I know on the freshwater side I've heard of people tossing pennies in their tanks to try to "dose" copper for disease and they just sit there forever. Wishing wells and the like also. I guess that the Cu really likes to bind to something in salt and go into solution.
That's so horrible.
It's tough when it's little kids, because they just don't understand. It's not like they are malicious. It reminds me of a Dennis Leary stand-up talking about finally getting the dream home theater system. He woke up in the middle of the night to one of his kids feeding the VCR a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It's one of those things where you can kind of see what they were thinking "I'll make a wish in Grandpa's favorite pool." Well, like I said, hopefully we can all take something away from this. Sucks so bad though!
Are you still going to do a clam-focussed tank with the new build, or go back to more of a mixed reef?
