Default Bet no one has heard of....this!

You're so gullable! Im wondering if anyone in canreef accross the board knows what Kangen Water is.
I know it makes the silkiest tasting water; that its scientific; and it comes doctor recomended.

I wonder how it will do with my marine aquarium.

Care to pointificate, anyone?

you can dial in any ph you want, high ph makes water silkier. But who says its better?

silky water? I'm not sure that sounds "better" LOL. Actually, I think I may have had some silky water on the streets of Bangkok one time.. it wasn't great.

I like instant gratification, what can I say?

However, better? As anyone who has done their research can tell you, a healthy body shlould be more alkaline. Depends on variables like, expectation on water absobsion (if youre drinking it), (http://ezinearticles.com/?Alkaline-D...ment&id=458737)

But thats off topic. I'm thinking about its impact within the marine aquara. I'm not entirely sure of the impact, say, VS RO/DI.

However, I'm not here to debate what the differences are, but rather to draw out more curiosity of the nature of the water in the 'water column'.

I'm hoping for good intelligible conjecture simply because water, in this hobby, is the life force. Understanding all its parameters will never be a case of instant gratification. And so, here I am.

Very funny, smart ass. You were waiting for someone to use that on, weren't you?

Actually, I did Google it before posting, and found the alkaline water scam that many gullible folks are falling for. It doesn't make any sense from a drinking water standpoint, and it makes even less sense from a reefer standpoint. People will fall for anything as long as the website looks all nice and pretty, something I will never get.

I actually started a thread about this scam at Reefcentral a week ago...

Use Randy's two-part and get an alkalinity test kit. Alkalinity is raised with baking soda.
