thanks for the links you two

I've been doing a little homework on this stuff. I am going to do my own cultures in the next 5-6 months...

I recieved a lot of stuff yesterday from reefer friends... I got phyto, some live phyto, pods, etc.. enough to keep me going for the next 2 months,

I found a guy on ebay who grows his own green water.. I'm trying to set a small group buy up with some of the locals I'm friends with.. if we get five 2 liters for example, the cost is $19.86 per 2 liter... How can you beat that !!! Its good to buy in bulk
