Only now, I 'perasan' (noticed), you are giving up using them.. hahaha ..after bought some from you. I am happy that I bought it, as I like to test new stuff, who knows, maybe it will works well for me. You never know until you tried it, right?. I am in the middle of figuring out the dosing level for my tanks. The dosing guide you gave me is a good start, thanks again, but I will dose lower for a start, and increase as time goes by, depending on the plant response and algae issues. Maybe I will do it to my test tank first especially the Fe. I hope someone else who have been using the same stuff, can share their experiences though.

I am using their Bacter ball which is the same with Bacter 100. (Bacter 100 is the powder form) My tank water was like the klang river. i was told that is good. So, share half bottle with standoyo... first week dump in 3 pieces. but can't really see the result. But water do stable and no died fish. 2nd week dump in 2 more pieces... and damn. overnight only. i saw the tank water crystal clear. muahaha... can't stop looking at my tank now.

Talking about Bacter Ball, what if I use Bacter 100 mixed with water in a bottle, and dumps it into the tank instead? What do you think? I have read you post about ADA products here :
http://www.myfishforum.com/thread4177.html, but just want to know your opinion. I would like to try the Bacter Ball though, to see it for myself the effect, but I already got some Bacter 100, not sure about using it, although ADA did recommend it to be applied to aquarium water when ‘necessary’. Last time use it under the ADA soil. I have been using that Green Bacter after all this time.
And one more question, if I may, what do you think about ADA Penac-W?..Not enough information around about this product (or I am not looking hard enough), but from what I can gather, it contains some Ca, Mg, Si, Fe etc..is it some sort of micro nutrients too?
Used Penac-P under the ADA soil during the initial setup of my tank (just following what a guy at my nearby LFS told, blur blur, that time, “one set la...senang kira”, the guy said....”errrr ok la!” I replied..

)
Thanks
Regards
