Thanks. I enjoy bringing new life into the old metaframe and pemco tanks. Looking forward to seeing how well this K1 does.

Since I did this K1 media bottle my water is always crystal clear... Best thing I've done to help keep good bacteria and clean clear water. All thanks to Josie for sharing the video.

Ok Josie, boy, must've missed this one...the video seems clear, but, is this supposed to be an adjunct to our AC filters & sponge filters or in place of? What is the long term on these? Replace'm when the bottle falls apart, or does the media disintegrate? Is the media plastic?..are these just soda bottles? does color matter? (prob not, lol).....Just wondering since I totally was not on the planet when you proposed'm, lol.........Tia

both media and bottle are made of plastic so falling apart is not an option for this material LOL...Once the media is seeded I replace the sponge filter with the bottle it cuts my cleaning down considerably and keeps the tank nice and cycled with all the water changes.....Josie

P.S. i like using the clear bottles as to see the progress of seeding going on in the bottle.....

For Josie! You can see my K1 filter (I stuck the seeded sponge on the end to help with seeding the media. Thinking I'll just leave it there) and my Floras on a small clutch. They should start to wiggle today.

URG...Can't get the video to imbed in the post, so I'll just leave it as a llink...
