Trying to find is TPR (thermoplastic rubber) is safe for use in my sump. I have four TPR rubber anti-vibration feet that I'm looking to use under a skimmer. I guess the proof would be is TPR food safe - but can't find a solid Google answer! Anyone know? My concern is plastic leaching.

An article right here on R2R confirms that they are indeed....REEF SAFE. You are good to go. I'd say let it soak in rodi for a week or two. Then change the water and soak i rodi again, while using cheap filter with carbon in it. This will get rid of any cross contamination with any other materials that aren't reef safe.
