Re: TDS meter
Al, sounds like you have a very neat setup. I like having the daphnia &
mozzies incorporated in the water supply. Lamentably, I am renting this
place and doubt if the landlord would be amenable to foundation
modifications. Your setup is certainly going to be thought about when I
get out of the Navy in 2 years and my wife and I buy (or build) our own
house.
Best Regards,
Wm
