| Re: Misty Bd When you say "Drain all the water out (or transfer into another drum) then bubble it with a fan over the top (and a heater if you want) for a few days until it clears." do you use an air bubbler from a fish aquarium? If so what type? I do have problems like that occasionally and either just let it settle for some extra days or heat it to around 50 deg C for awhile to allow the convection of the heat to stir and separate the water from the BD. |

| Re: Misty Bd That the idea. I have a 8 port air pump very much like this one, and use these air stones. They have others, such as the stainless steel ones but they seem to clog up after a while. The standard stone type will only last about as long as it takes you to install them as the bio melts the glue and they fall apart like a sugar cube dropped into a cup of Tea. I use the sun for my drying. Just put it out in the sun in open top container for a couple of days. Works real good and costs nothing to run. Last edited by Qwarla; 24th May 2008 at 01:19 AM. |
