    Default Recommendation on Frag Plugs?

    Where to buy them? Not really interested in making them myself atm, I heard if you buy them uncured they can raise your alk/ph level to high and cause problems. Soooo .... anyone got solid links where to buy cured and un-cured???

    The ones i got was spoused to be cured but i was like you don't trust them. So i put 5 or 6 at a time in the sump not enough to bother anything and
    after a few days i add a few more.

    I can make them! The easiest way to cure them is to put them in the back of your toilet tank. They will get a water change every time you flush.
    Does water always taste like salt and poo????

    Is it ok to have a few in the tank curing? and usually how long do they take to cure? My house runs on well water and I'd be nervous curing them in that, because we have metals (not sure which ones) and sulphur in the water. Very annoying =/.

    I would definately watch your PH. The cement will raise it very quickly.

    Get rubble from Marco Rocks. They're the best for frag mounts.

    In a 60+ gallon system how many frags you think I can put to start cycling them?

    PS: Ive never mentioned this is that your parrot? She/He is beautiful, I love cockatoos they have such a lovable personality. I had one for a few years, until it got ahold of some chocolate (lethal to them) and died .
