How do I remedy a copper-galvanized corrosion problem on my water
heater connections? I put the water heater in with a friend's help
about 3 years ago. Now please see photos of corrosion between the
flexible copper connectors and the fixed galvanized pipes (both hot
and cold). Photos are at:

Do they sell some kind of spacer that can be put between the two and
is corrosion-neutral or something? What do I want to buy and install
to stop the corrosion? Thank you.
