Why do you feel that the float will stick? As long as it is kept clean, not allowed to corrode or build up salt creep it should be fine right? I...

If affordability is priority I am sure its better than tap water. But you will still be putting low tds water into your tank, not 0 tds water which I...

I found a tek 4 bulb with legs on craigslist for 200 dollars. I will probably just pull the actinics and use 4 ati blue plus bulbs or something...
