    Unfortunately no. The scaffolding is too tight and both mats being 5 cm thick, it´s impossible. That´s mighty interesting Darrel, any links or scientific papers?

    Hi, I got my new 20 PPI matt in the mail today. Should i replace my 45 PPI with it? I figured the 45 will have more surface for the bacteria to grow but it might clog up faster.

    Strictly South American plants?

    Strictly South American plants?

I could not use Mike W´s patented InstantInoculation™ technique because I did not have big enough bucket. How long would you keep the old filter running along...
