    howzit guys...

    i got my 50kg this morning... i must say, it's EXCELLENT stuff!

    guys this is really a steal for R130. its got like this shiny glassy feel to it & shaun was right, it doesn't affect the pH in ANY way :)

    i'll try posting up pics when i'm done filling my tank... hopefully when this flu goes away...
