    You're right, it can't hurt...and maybe it will help. We have a few folks on the forum trying these out, and we're trying to get a general consensus of whether they do actually work, so please update us as to whether you have good results with it or not.

    Sounds like you have metals in your fill water. The only way to get your water clear is to get rid of the metals....I am using the curator again this year. Last year it seemed to wrk, so far this year the metals havn't returned. You can also get the metals to fall out of suspension so that they stain the filter, but it is more complicated. Keep us informed, and feel free to ask any questions
