| Okay, I've been looking for a month for the stuff and can not find it anywhere. Does anyone know of some online suppliers? Every single one I've come across has had a surfactant in it. I heard the Walmart brand was "the one" so I drove out that way last night it hopes of finding it. It didn't foam like the others but it did indeed have the surfactant listed as an ingredient. I've looked in every market, every drug store, every department store, every discount store in my area and haven't come up with it. Gonna see if I can find a janitorial suplly store but after that I'm out of ideas..... I swear when I find some I am going to buy tons of eat and share it with the world.... so frustrating.

| Renee, I had the same problem......I finally found it at the Kroger chain grocery store. It is their brand called Everyday Living. I have used this brand for over a year now with good success.

And it really inexpensive - 1/2 gallon cost less than a dollar and has lasted over a year.

We don't have Kroger's but we do have a smart and final..... and it's right next to the LFS. I've never been in there, do you need as pass of any sort?

One can use pure ammonia to cycle a tank without fish. I use it in a separate tank to cycle and keep air driven sponge filters cycled. Only a few drops a day is needed so a bottle lasts a long time. Cycling with ammonia assures that no pathogens are introduced and no fish have to suffer due to ammonia/nitrite spikes during the cycling process.

| Hey Kelly, just thought I would throw this page I put together at ya on cycling a new tank and see how it goes over. I only did so (create a page) out of frustration at seeing new tanks being flooded with ammonia amounts that end up producing the inevitable algae nightmare that everyone seems to have accepted as being normal, how many new hobbyists have given up within their first year just out of being unable to beat/control algae? My Cycle Methods Page ( I know, like you have nothing better to do..lol) Chuck
