Well, I want to buy a large group of Cherry Shrimp or even a Bamboo shrimp and was wondering if my substrate is safe, because copper and other metals are listed on the chemical analysis on the seachem site.

Also would a Cu test kit, be a reliable way to determine if my tank was safe, which btw I have never used a copper treatment either?

Nice, if you say they're safe, then I'll look into getting some cherries. I think they'll be safe now that that my 80gal has really grow in.
