Just got done doing my weekly 1 - 2 gallon weekly water change on my 6 gallon fluval edge. I know alot of people hate doing water changes but I find them very rewarding. Everything looks happier and the water stays crystal clear. Of course I don't think it would be that exciting doing this on a 210

You said it. Water changes are great. But on a larger scale... well much more costly (50 pounds of salt), less frequent and a bit more time consuming. I go through 4-5 gallons a day just in top of water. ------------- A government strong enough to give you everything you want, is powerful enough to take everything you have. |
