	Looks like bacteria aren't just good for your aquarium filter...

Bacteria in your water filter can make your water taste better. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.

And that's coming from someone who hates the taste of water... I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.

Some water tap tastes better than others. My parents have a well and have some very very good tasting water, although in the past few years the quality of the pipes have gone down hill and it has to be run for hours it seems before you get not funny tasting water. Now, as to why any "health" juice company would put BGA in a drink....that I'll never know . Coworker of mine had some, I wouldnt drink that for the world, and it was sold in the grocery stores ! ^_^
