Howdy notanovice,

Thanx for replying to this thread-I'd hate to give out bad advice..lol. I had a pretty good feeling that something would work as a substitute,just wasn't quite sure,I know that one does have to worry about particulates and total disolved solids, in some hydro set-ups,I just figured that it wasn't so critical in a bubbler set-up.

Well,I wish I could got to the chat-room and holler at ya,but my honey is awake and she's fixin to make me some S.O.S for breakfast..Yeeehhhaaww !! Btw,after the other morning,my sweetie-pie made me a cheese omlette..yeeehhhaaawww !! Tell heart for the good idea ! ...lol.

Have a good one..Torog
