    Yup yer gonna have to soak it for a while. One tip I was given is to wet it down big time then freeze it! Won't float no more :)

    Sounds like a nice midnight snack. ;)

    Maybe ill make some Cyclop-Eeze cubes, that would make it simple for the fiancée to dose. I wonder if I can add Fuel to the mix and kill two birds with one stone.....

    Any thoughts?

    yeah, I will with this batch, but evidently with the frozen rods, ya just take it out, hold it in front of a power head for a few seconds, wrap it back up and throw it in the freezer and done. No big deal, i'll just buy that kind next time;)

    So you guys think it would be okay to mix it with AquaVitro Fuel (2ml) per section and freeze?

    As long as they hold up. I just wash em gently in between uses. I also remember seeing teeny tiny ice cube trays somewheres, which would work great. Just gotta find em again-lol.
