    I do think our tanks know if we resent doing our water changes?;D I do think that food prepared by some one that cares about what they are doing is going to be made better than some one that does not, but do you think that salt water mixed with love is better than salt water mixed when your annoyed that you need to do a water change?

    I love the results of doing water changes! And since I started using RO/DI, a good food grade 5g bucket, an mj600 and about 3 feet of tubing I've grown to actually like doing them :)
