Just a quick question, do any members use or would use any of the Aquadip products ?, reason i ask is Pro-Shrimp seem to have a lot of their products, ie Aquadip H2O maker (Seachem prime), Aquadip Active start (Seachem stability) and Aquadip liquid filter medium (Seachem pristine), they come in 1ltr bottles, that's a bonus, but looking at the instructions you end up using more for the required doses as apposed to the equivalent Seachem products that seem more concentrated. Always used Seachem with my previous setup, but looking at the Aquadip products for comparison, and off course to save some pennies.

Thoughts please.

Thanks Moby. Will give their products a try, nothing to lose really. If i am not impressed will revert to Seachem and Easylife products.

I'd recommend trying TNC for the ferts but aquadip for the rest. TNC Lite ( all in one fert ) TNC Carbon ( Carbon, although I don't use it ) and TNC Iron

I don't, but I have seen their products listed before. It's a Dutch company and anything aquatic from Netherlands I find is usually very good. Only have to look at their aquariums. ;)

I been using their rival, easy-life for quite a few years now which is also from the Netherlands. :]

It doesn't contain nitrate or phosphates so shouldn't cause an issue while cycling.
