Seachem says you can use 50% Flourite and still get the benefits. I
have yet to find anything that keeps Flourite from clouding except time.



Easy. You wash it. Alot. :O

I use a colander, a 5 gallon bucket and a garden hose. Think of panning

I washed my Flourite in a basket until the water ran clear. I ran
gallons and gallons of water over it with the garden hose. Next I dried
it competely (that's supposed to help), put it in the tank, and filled
ever so carefully with a slow trickle onto a plate set on the the
Flourite. I STILL had to water polish.
