New Life Spectrum fish food and copper

[Treebeard]

After reading fishytime's post regarding copper in NLS pellets, I checked my food, and sure enough, it has an ingredient called copper proteinate. A few minutes ago I sent NLS an email questioning the use of this ingredient in their food, and within minutes I received this response (kudos to them for their promptness!)

Hi Reid,
Copper is not added to the product. It's a natural ingredient already present.
Please read the following from our forum:

Hope that helps.

Decide for yourselves, but I see know reason not to continue using NLS food as a part of my regular feeding routine.
