What type of polyester batting do you suggest? That might help me identify
which stores would carry this product. I am having the same problem with
cloudy water...

Because there's no room in my filter, I was thinking about stuffing the
intake 'pipe' with some batting... Would this work?

Thanks

I've had the polyester batting in for about a week without any
improvement... I placed the batting where the carbon filter normally sits
(in the horizontal filter area). It is somewhat brown on top (probably from
PureGold food 'crumbs')... Should I wait longer, or look into another
solution?

Thanks

It takes 3-4 weeks for media to become colonized with bacteria.

Hi

I have just purchased the following

http://www.easylife.nl/english/index.html?id=11

The main aquarium fish shops all swear by it and my tank has cleared
within
2 days.

regards

Mike

Sorry - not PureGold, but Pro-Gold... This food is great, but causes a lot
of crumbs...

So, I should wait a couple of weeks for the water to clear up (i.e. the
colonies will clear up the water once they are established)?
