Jon Fishman Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Shopping/about ready to pick one up..... and it seems like there are reviews that say the benefits and negatives (removing good bacteria) make the use of one kind of a wash...... perhaps good for a QT setup (ain't nobody got time for dat) but maybe not in my best interest for a display tank..... maybe 'running dirty' isn't so bad?

Fishoutofwater Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 I used to run one on my 65 years ago. I loved it. I cracked the quartz sleeve while doing maintenance. I was so mad. Definitely noticed a difference when I took it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonvice Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Have it up and running. We will see how it does on algae and pests. I have heard it is good for ich and other fish diseases. Give it a week or so and we will see how things look. Craig 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
