I wish I knew more about it but I don't. I have explored doing it and buying an Aquaripure and giving it a shot.

Nitrate Filter Setup


I look forward to what others will say on this forum.

Unless your nitrates and phosphates are extremely high,then I just cant see taking the risk.

 

[dcantucson]

You're right yote. I would just fu@k it up for sure.

It's pretty risky. I've heard of quite a few people crashing their tanks doing it. Even those who say they were careful.

Yes, that would be bad having to explain that your drinking buddies are your fish.
