You can install it to your main water line where you change out the filter 3-6 months. I installed one just for my aquariums where I only need to change out the filter maybe once a 8months - year. It's nice to feed tap water straight into my tank without killing my fish.

I'll post pictures later. I'm still working out kinks. There's a minor leak I'd want to fix up.

5. KNO3 - Saltpeter. Was once considered an anti-aphrodisiac, and supposedly added to sailors' food for that effect. When dry and added to water, including directly on the tongue, it cools; an odd sensation. Does taste salty, I guess that's where the common name came from. But has an odd aftertaste, similar to salt substitute (KCl).
6. HCl - When diluted to the same strength, tastes somewhat like white vinegar, though harsher and less complex. If I had a recipe that called for vinegar as a minor ingredient, and was out, I'd consider substituting HCl; it's closer in flavor than say, lemon juice. Despite the Cl, it does not taste salty; perhaps the acidic flavor overwhelms it?

I did actually once manage to distinguish between two fert solutions I'd forgotten to label by taste.

1. MgCl2 - A really intense salty flavor that has a bitter after taste.
2. MgSO4 - a metallic slight salty taste.
3. CaSO4 - tastes like chalk
4. CaCl4 - bitter salty with some heat! not spicy but actual heat. No wonder it's used to melt icy sidewalks.

So it's the Chlorine that makes the things salty.

My understanding of prime and others is that the chemical combines with ammonia or chloramine to make it a rather large molecule where it can't be absorb by fauna and I'd assume plants as well.

While Prime prevents the ammonia from harming fish, it does leave it available to bacteria to be broken down. This leads me to believe that the ammonia is also available to plants and algae. I've come up with three situations, which I think (from an algae perspective) are identical. I'm hoping that someone can provide some insight in to this:

A) Adding X PPM ammonia to a tank.
B) Adding X PPM ammonia to a tank, with the appropriate amount of Prime.
C) Adding an appropriate amount of chloramine to a tank, with Prime such that there is X PPM of bound ammonia in the tank.

Thoughts?
