    How have you seeded the dsb? Do you have any critters to turn over the layers? Just asking as I removed my dsb as it wasn't doing anything & I was concerned it was going to start producing hydrogen sulphide rather than converting nitrate.

    Will be interested to see how it goes. I like the idea of a dsb, but don't want to risk it causing more problems!
