I never knew....
how crazy some of you really are until tonight! So the tank has been going about a month and been cleaning the skimmer every few days. Well since I was out of town it didn't get done last weekend so I did it tonight. You know all those post were your bragging on your skimmate... Gross!!!!!! It smelt bad before, but tonight I really could have hurled. I mean come on, to think this stuff was in the water. And there is no way I will ever taste that stuff even if my life depended on it. This is the first time I have gotten the thick tea looking skim until now it has been yellow and not to bad of a smell. The day my skimmate starts smelling good to me is the day I check myself into the sych ward!

OOooh Kenya! Maybe I should start bottling this stuff up! Too much effort. I already hold my breath from the time I open the thing up till I can get flushed down the toilet.

Not on your life. Considering the smell alone makes sick I know I would never get it down. I would never be one of those people to drink something, throw it up, and lose anyway. No thank you!

Might have to give that one some thought. Otherwise, no way that stuff will pass my lips voluntarily!

YES!
I will do that in a heart bit. At least it is not alive and will not move in my mouth while I drink it.
