Zeolites or ammonia chips works by absorbing organic ammonia. I had them in my filter before..once I remove them algae starts to bloom and the water became cloudy. It seem the tank is going into a mini cycle. It might be the zeolites is messing with my tank cycle since I had it since day 1. Again this is just my observation. Without the use of a proper test kit, I could only guess smile.gif.

All I can say is, a properly cycled and mature filter doesn't need any other things..not even purigen  tongue.gif

called chuppy jz nw... thanks for telling me about the co2.. its normal.. smile.gif


Added on January 25, 2010, 8:14 pmaiyaks.. michanz's aluminium also the same ? really shocked me after i yamcha back.. saw whole bottle freeze.. many water vapour...
*
chuppy say its normal? because my common sense based from my experince, the shieldtox when u spray for a long period of time the can becomes cold, also from my experience of the disposable campfire gas can the valve kinda broke and the gas leaked so quickly the can got really cold..

so maybe the same thing goes to this case?
