    Great News!

    What do you mean you do not want to get too excited, that a lot can happen in nine months. what kind of positive thinking is that from a person who exemplifies positivity? you just be as excited as you want. the only thing that is going to happen is that you are going to have a beautiful and...

    mojoreef, your last paragraph in your most recent post indicates that you are more verses on bacteria than I. I have the same problem in not understanding what you are saying. lets look at understanding. I never said "you asked about my skimmer" my statement there was in jest to your...

    Probiotics, What?

    probiotics, what? MIKE, In my posts I indicate the use of a skimmer. I have said I do not have any problems with the prudent use of a skimmer. (only extreme hard skimming) I said I skim for four hrs each day, this is my solution (as would be obvious) to exporting all those tons of dead...

    Probiotics, What?

    gman0526, there is no guarantee that a known beneficial bacteria will be successful. it is not always a matter of competition with other bacteria, in fact that is rarely the case. lets use cyanobacteria as an example. cyno will flourish in a polluted tank ( cyno is a beneficial food source for...

    Probiotics, What?

    MikeS, I am confused by your statement "chase it's own tail" several members posted asking for info on products that are probiotic and how it is used and etc. I really do not see your need to make that statement. I believe it is in poor taste. there is a button for "rate this thread" at the...
