This is available many places, but as it is appropriate for the tanks and I, myself, have not seen it before, I figured I would repost it here. I debated the propriety of including other vendors' juices in Mom & Pop's forum, both because of the matter of "mentioning the competition" and because of the apparent suggestion that their juice is somehow inherently "safer" due to their lack of inclusion, but I decided that editing the list in any way would compromise its integrity and do a disservice to My4Jewels' hard work in compiling it. My original thought was simply to forward the list privately to Scuba, in case she hadn't seen it, so that she could have the information about the flavourings on the off-chance that she uses any of them (I have no idea). I decided that this information should be available to everyone, and based on their previous demonstrations of concern for their customers Mom & Pop would likely respost it anyway.
I may have made poor decisions. I know that I am in violation of one of ECF's rules in mentioning a competitor's product in a registered vendor's thread without their express permission. Either Mom & Pop or the ECF mods may take appropriate action, I understand the possible consequences of my action. I realize that I am taking a chance on offending Pop and/or Scuba, and if I have done so I am truly sorry (though I do not think this is the case or I wouldn't be doing it). I am also aware that I may be in violation of some other ECF rule of which I am not aware, and if this is the case I will accept the consequences.
With that out of the way, this list does not suggest any danger or represent any risk to health, it merely collects juices and flavourings that have been known to damage the polycarbonate tube used in most tanks (including the Sub and mini-Sub). I have run multiple tanks of M&P's Butterfly Bait, Caramel and Spearmint through one with absolutely no indication of cracking or damage of any kind.
I have slightly reformatted the list into cohesive groups but have neither added nor subtracted any information at all.
