[APD] RE: bio ball alternative

["Christopher Ferrell" <ferrell_chris at hotmail_com>]

Another possibility would be to use a smaller size of PVC pipe, cut up into 
smaller lengths (About 1" or less) and then put into a larger (2") CO2 
reactor.  Turn them all different ways and they will serve the same purpose, 
breaking up bubbles and causing turbulence in the water.

Some pet stores will sell bio-balls in smaller quantities for cheap.  I got 
a gallon or so of used ones from a pet store.  Soak them in some hot water 
w/ a bit of clorox and it will kill any beasties (plus, they were from the 
SW tank system).
