Does this stuff kill so much that snails & cuc, tuxedo urchin wouldn't have enough to eat? I am not sure if I have dinos (starting to think I may) and was contemplating this stuff yesterday.
The stuff I'm getting goes away overnight and gets really bad during the day. If I stir it up it looks really slimy and moves about in fairly big pieces. I don't think it's diatoms. It almost goes towards a purple color.
Since December 20th I've had 20ml of Vibrant sitting around with it loosely covered to allow evaporation. I've weighed it almost everyday with .001g accuracy. Past few days the weight has remained the same.
Empty container
With ~20ml Vibrant added as measured by the cup it comes with
After evaporation (I'm sure all water hasn't evaporated but close enough lol)
Very thick and sticky
Why do people climb Mt. Everest? Seems like an incredibly silly thing to do just because it's there. Yet, people still do it.Why are you doing this? I'm curious.

Well, looks like I did then. Do you mean why did I see how much agar there would be left after evaporation? I was curious how much there was. Someone else burned off the water but I didn't see any measurements and this also confirms the same finding that person did. Plus, now I want to see it under the microscope like that.I guess you missed my point, never mind,
If you want that you can get way more of that hereExtremely interesting thread! Also basically microscope porn, which is always fun to look at.

Just curious. No expectations just experiments.I was just curious as to what findings you were looking for. There wasn't much explanation as to why you were doing this. I was curious, that's all.
The vinegar and amino sources are extremely small so I doubt they would interfere with that. However, as shown above there is a sugar source not disclosed in the ingredients which is part of the bacteria culture. I don't know how it would interfere. I don't have any experience with sugar dosing and have avoided it due to many experiences of increased cyano with including sugar sources in their carbon dosing blends.As it has a carbon source and bacteria in it, would it be ok to use in a Zeovit tank or would there be a risk of a bloom (and would that be anything to be particularly concerned about)?
Any thoughts on using it while also using Zeobak and Start (carbon source)?
