I’ll leave this at that
BobWhat’s this source to buy delivered nsw?
Lol. Care to elaborate?
UsedThat's odd. They have always filtered it. I've used tens of thousands of gallons since early 2000's and never saw any life, at times that would have been nice actually
Where have you been getting it from?
Pet Club in Corte Madera which I used to see Bobs truck delivering water. Sadly over a year ago they decommissioned their whole live stock fish department only dry goods now. They had a huge plastic storage silo for nsa. My assumption is egg/larva got through the filtration process then hatched in their storage tank?

Would the results be inaccurate or do they just decline to test it?On this note, apparantly some folks have sent in their skim mate to understand how many traces are being pulled out from the skimmer (obviously do not do that!).
Whoever sends this will be billed for cleaning the machines….Would the results be inaccurate or do they just decline to test it?
I am swamped but if anyone wants to stop by for some water to run some tests let me know
Actually the PO4 was due to ground water intrusion at the point where the intake is as evidenced by a salinity of 24 ppt, and that ground water comes from GGP where they water the plants with grey water so we also saw ammonia in the water. Also, we were using lanthanum to remove the PO4 from the seawater not GFO and the of that went way up when the Chinese started buying it all up back in the early 2010s.I remember at the academy that's one of the reasons why they stopped using it (the other being they couldn't get a long enough tube for cleaner water). The need for crazy amounts of gfo made it not cost effective.
