Yup, that's exactly what happened. The cleaner had been in the tank for a couple months... I was told they would be fine IF I added the CB last as it...
My experience lasted about 15 seconds... that's how long it took for the skunk cleaner to dismember and clean out the CBS. I have heard of others...
Hmmm... Guess not. :)
Just a couple of silly questions regarding the "failure" e-mails: 1) How far out of town might you be when you receive one? 2) Is there someone...
