I hate to ruin the fun streak but fyi, antibacterial soap is the devil. regular soap is JUST as effective. Antibacterial products are creating new strains of resistant bacteria by only killing off weaker ones. Think about the 99% of pathogens your miracle soaps kill off; then think about what would be left over to reproduce. that's evolution. honestly, the only antibacterial products that should be around are for actual medical applications, not for everyday uses.

btw, I know exactly what you mean about the rock structuring... Im an addict to messing with aquascapes. it's a bad habit. speaking of which...
