Re: Diatom filters

[Kate Breimayer <kate@munat.com>]

I have a couple pics of the diatom filter I used in action... would this 
be a good topic overall-how to overcome greenwater-and everyone writes a 
brief piece that someone could edit? Actually we could take all the 
emails and turn them into one. I am currently attempting to overcome it 
with rotifers as I suggested to someone else. So far the fish are eating 
well... not up for removing the fish so ultimately might have to try 
something else. I don't think you want to DIY a diatom filter, better to 
buy a somewhat used one as they are the kind of item that doesn't get a 
lot of use even if it's several years old, as long as nothing is broken 
and the seals are good a used one should be fine.
