You mentioned Flourite in another thread. ( I didn't want to hijack, so I'll start another ). You said it was difficult to wash... I'm getting ready to set up a 55 with plants I'm getting from SueM. I am using Flourite and I have read not to wash Flourite at all. It seems as though much of the good stuff is in the fines and you don't want to wash it away. I've been told to be very, very careful when adding water and just let it all settle for a few days. Your thoughts????
