RAV-65 Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Hi all, just got myself a Fludised Reactor and put in about 1kg of rowas. But after about 1 week, the diatoms still growing like mad!! is it possible that the rowas has gotten saturated over 3-4 days? Should i change the rowas in my FR?? Thanxs!

Achilles Tang Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Diatoms? Its possible, if your silicates were very high to begin with. Maybe you can try Silicarbon, a special activated carbon that precisely & effectively absorbs Silicate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
