Is this the right citric acid to clean my wavemakers with? I ordered some from Amazon but it got lost so they gave me a refund.

Amanda,

It is probably fine but it does not have an ingredients list. It does say no artificial colors or preservatives so it is probably fine. Basically you just want pure citric acid.

I just use the Millards 5lb bag for $27 from Amazon, I think it's good value.

I use the Wages brand too. I find it at Wallyworld and Ace Hardware.

I was going to post the same thing that @NanoSteam posted above. It's the least expensive and it doesn't go bad.

You can get it delivered between 4:00 and 8:00 tomorrow morning if you order now from the place that @tharbin Tom loathes.

Yup and at 5lbs you can use it for other things without running out quickly like cleaning fruits and such around the kitchen.

Enjoy your weekend and don't take any eggs from this guy!

I have been treating my phyto jugs with the citric acid as of late, but my phyto has been down for about a week, have some Isochrysis Galbana and more Tetraselmis chui on the way from Reef Legends

I just seen the one i tried to order from Amazon on the Walmart app and it can be delivered tomorrow so I ordered it. I hate going to Walmart and would prefer not to since I can get it delivered.

Personally I use 2 tablespoons per 500mL and soak for 2 hours. Rinse with RODI.

Been thinking about growing phyto and pods is it hard to do?

I've never tried it... is there a benefit to feeding live vs frozen regarding nutritious value or is it just to get picky eaters going.

You can gut load the brine shrimp and it's a cleaner way to feed when it's introduced as live instead of frozen. Is this statement thaf I made true? .....probably not, but it gives me a chance to say good morning to you and.....



TRY TO CONVINCE YOU TO BUY ONE!!!

:D :D :D

Good morning!!!! I guess now I have to research how to gut load... heard that term before but never looked into it.

I think basically its just feeding them a high quality food before you feed them to your fish.
