Definition of a Chitty day … this is part 1 of my 500g filtration and plumbing redo… 55gal full of bio balls swapped out for k1 moving bed/bio reactor i had on my old 300 ray tank. This k1 has been in a tub with water for 2 years … the bacteria did not live lol… ive been putting off removing these bio balls for years now. Theres just enough room to fit my arm in . 1 handfull at a time of 10 years worth of straight chit … if it wernt for auto drips this system would have failed many many years ago. Shes done now atleast … if anyone in the tri state area needs bio balls come and get em lol…

Lol, I just started a thread in DIY detailing my jaundiced view of both Bioballs and K1...and then I revisited this thread and saw you blissfully unaware of the error of your ways!

Obviously, great minds don't always think alike...
