Never had as clear of water as I had before it. It tumbles really easy as well. I'm going to regenerate this batch, but I will have another set of it to dump in and get things going. I don't have the time to mess with it for 24 hours nor the ability to have my reactor offline for that long.
The biggest thing I'm hoping is going to be these resins from Cobalt. I've just started hearing about them and haven't heard any bad yet. I'm just sick and tired of GFO. I can never get it to tumble right and I just haven't seen the results I want, even after upgrading to high capacity stuff. I feed 2 cubes a week and algae growth has increased. That doesn't quite make sense.
EDIT: I was just looking into my tank as I prep for today's water change. My conch has vanished, and has been missing for some time. I find it odd as he was pretty large and, well, would leave a shell behind. I'm hoping he is simply spending lots of time under the sand, though doubtful.
To go along with that, my indigo dottyback is also missing. It has been a week I think. I'm thinking these 2 deaths gave me a pretty nice boost in algae growth.
