    The kit is good for feeding just a few and it will keep going for a few days. No air needed just a light for the BB's to fallow and maybe some warmth. I have one of those haven't used in a long wile.

    We never got Wattley's method to work for us thirty years ago either. I suspected and still do that he left something crucial to success out of his published method. Of course back then there was a lot of bad information and outright lies floating around. Much like today.

    It was just spread in books, magazines and long distance phone calls instead of FB.

    And the other guys modification did not work for me either. egg yolk is the answer both to success but more often to failure!

    Are you using Bakers Egg Yolk Powder or hard boiled egg yolk?

    And it can easily and cheaply be duplicated by ANYONE!! We don't use metal frame tanks any more, or undergravel filters, or incandescence lighting and after 50 years, I think it is time we forget about powdered egg yolk, with all due respect to Jack Wattley!!
