I had one of the sand sifting "turd" with spikes cukumbers. I don't know how it got injured but it eventually died. I came home from work only to find half of it left, with my purple tang and cleaner shrimp taking turns eating it, and they are both alive today.

I found the Garlic soaked foods worked well for my ick problem also. I don't;however, have a UV and I believe this is why it didn't take long for the ick to come back. As for why the garlic worked. My roomate said they used to give their dogs garlic before they went out into the woods or...

I think the 404 is the same as my 304s, but with larger compartments, and higher flow rate. On changing the media. I put in new carbon monthly when I water change, change about half of the poly fill twice a month, and havn't changed the bio max yet. Fluval suggests 1/2 change every 6 months...

However....if you are eating something or taking a multi-vitimin while drinking the DI water it is quite possible that it wont be DI anymore by the time your body gets a chance to absorb it. none the less I wouldn't drink it personaly.

I can't say how detrimental drinking DI water would be, but I have worked with it in a couple of laboritories. Drinking DI is always on the safty list of things NOT to do. Your body uses ions to do alot of things: Absorb food and water, maintain nervous and muscular function, and your kidneys...

I am not too certain about the difference in the home-vs-pet store RO filters. I do know that DI water is extremely clean. A DI filter will take out all the free ionic elements in the water. DI water shouldn't be consumed, it will run through you a sive and strip out a lot of the ions you...
