    Hmmmm, a placebo cure for cyano? The litle buggers are easy to fool aren't they?

    They said it was "similar" to an antibiotic. Cyano is a bacteria so I wouldn't be surprised if it was a common antibiotic that you could buy at any feed store. That wouldn't jive with it being an oxidizer though. If it were an antibiotic it would indiscrimately kill the good bacteria in the LR and LS as well as cyano. That's what has got me confused. You rarely find a "golden bullet" when it comes to biocides.

    I've had that bubble problem before (after having the skimmer off). The profusion of bubbles should stop within a day or so after the skimmer has been running again. If not, adjust the pump airline valve to reduce bubble frequency.

    Hope this helps

    I guess that means be careful if Joshua puts out a cheese ball and crackers when you go to his house for a frag or something. Thanks for the heads up dude!

    When I was in college I worked for a mycologist (a guy that studies fungi). He had been fairly famous back in the 50's because he had developed a couple of very important antibiotics including Streptomycin. One day I found a really pretty orange mold in my coffee filter. Go figure! I took it to the Prof to get him to identify it for me. He threw me out of his lab and told me to never bring it back it back. Apparently someone had done the same thing and the spores had spread throughout the lab and contaminated everything.

    OK, so it was just a little off topic.

    Joshua,

    Are you seriously trying to tell me that you don't get yelled at for all the little plastic bowls full of left over, thawed fish food in your refrigerator?

    I've been banished to the spare refrigerator in the garage.

    I always end up thawing out a little to much Formula 1, Angel Formula, mysids or something. Plus I use frozen daphia and baby brine for my corals. Left overs get stuck in the fridge until the next day.
