    The regular Denitraor. Used it for a few months, then removed it. It works, but I wanted to try something else. I went to Dosing Vodka, and still do that today. 8mls in the morning and 8mls in the evening. 0 Trates.

    Use some egg crate and partition off a small portion of the back of the tank and make a little egg crate box so that the fish can only pick the overgrowth, fill it with Cheato. This is my next step, to try, so I don't have to dose anymore.

    I've ran mine for a few months now. Friend of mine who helped me build it has been using one for about 4 years, and another friend of mine for just as long
