1. Tea should steep 1- 5 days. It depends on what you feed the "herd".

All testing for maximum diversity clearly shows 18-24 hours with

2. Chlorine kills. No need for a chlorine remover when stirring it every
few
hours for 24 hours will do the trick.

Chloramines are persistent and may not be volatized.

3. No need for a gang valve. The microbes get oxygen from the water's
movement at the surface. Thus one air stone is sufficient.

NO NO NO!!! The dissolved oxygen needs to stay of 5mg/L and will not
stay at that level from the surface movement MORE AIR IS NEEDED!!!!
