Many of these posts do not include an "unless" qualifier, so I'm hoping that the next person searching for help will run across this post and be aware of it just in case.
    I suppose it can be confusing for a newbie. We'll have to keep that in mind because we ALWAYS want to make it clear and simple. That's the mission of this board: to disseminate the best information we have as clearly and simply as possible.

    Funny, we never think about it, but we ALWAYS tell people doing a Baquacil conversion to discard and replace their sand when it's over.

    Or it could just be me being dense. LOL!

    I can't begin to calculate the time and money I have saved by finding this site, so I'm trying to do my part to help others out as well.
