    I like the idea. I agree with everything Rick says, but I'm never against seeing others experimenting. Maybe just don't experiment with the water changes or amount of food.

    It would require a crazy amount of time and resources for an actual controlled experiment but I still enjoy reading about informal, uncontrolled experiments on here where I can draw my own conclusions. It's not "proper" but I still enjoy reading.

    Wondering if it would help or hurt to use protein powder in food .such as whey protein like body builders do?or would it have to be added to water directly? Just how would it be used???

    I think it's a great idea and would love to read about the posted results. There may not be the need for tons of experiments. Just take the consensus of what works best and tweak it from there.
    I would also be interested in seeing where the point of diminishing returns are for water changes. Many people agree that power feeding has diminishing returns. How about Water changes? For example, it would be interesting to see the results and difference between 100% daily and 100% weekly WC.
