Connie,
             Actually I forwarded this from a good friend of mine.  We both 
Raise Discus and these really do work great for Conditioning the water prior 
to WCs.
   I'll have to check with him on this.   I have found several of these as 
well on Craig's for real cheap.  I currently have a couple now.
Sincerely,
                 Mark Dorward
