Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

I tried to get my 9 year old to watch the first home alone last week and she was very uninterested...on a side note I busted up laughing my butt off.
Still a funny movie.
 
it's like somebody drinking RO water , he will demineralize his body.
Don't say it too loud, I like to have cheap RO water.
:D Had this discussion before...show me the science. That is like saying pure water is bad for you so drink the polluted water to get your minerals. The majority of mineral uptake us from your food period. All the minerals from suppliments just gives you expensive urine as very little if any is absorbed. NIH publications support this fact.
 
I agree. Nothing wrong with the North at all. There are buns-holes everywhere in this world. No reason to pick sides.
Yankee!!!


Hahahahaha.... plenty of snot nosed brats who need a belt down here in dixie. Their parents too, probably more so.

Agreed. Pure water wont strip minerals either. If you're sweating a lot you'll need to replenish electrolytes somehow, which is usually done thru sports drinks. Most nutrients are absorbed thru food. The minerals added to bottled water are so it doesn't taste stale from sitting on the shelf.

I use exclusively RODI for my coffee, makes a mean fresh press.

My Ninja coffee maker calls for distilled or reverse osmosis water. The minerals in tap water will scale up the machine. So I just use the RODI and keep a gallon jug of distilled water full of RODI water. I use the same water in the french press.

I love this! Call me crazy, but the ***** put fluoride in the water in their concentration camps...and they weren’t concerned about teeth! I don’t drink tap water ever. Or any bottled water that says “minerals added for taste”

Ok you guys, the trachy...sandbed, low flow? Should be happy in the same conditions as my plates or acans?
That is where the Lobo is. Used to target feed, but not in a long time or during the recovery either.
 
You told me so. Almost threw it out.

I guess my mom really abused us. She'd tolerate going in and out for a bit, then she'd just lock us out. Drink out of the hose she said!
Nothing better than good ol' southern hose water. Gotta love that hint of vinyl! You think if I started a line of "Dixie Hose Water" that people would buy it? I bet I could support my reefing hobby with it.

Funny story for your Monday morning...

Last night before my last nightshift, I had some water going in the garage for the ATO. The brute was full, and I had just mixed up some salt close to where I thought it should be. Told the wife when the tote was full to just shut the water off and leave it there. Well, she misunderstood and added about half a tote to the brute, which was pretty full already. She told me it was still about 6" from the top and around 1.024 with the refractometer.

I knew I married her for a reason...
