Yes i havechecked, i also checked on it a few times the first time i put it in i wanted to make sure i didnt get a flood. Surprisingly its not extremely wet nor is there any bacteria. Its supposed to work like one of those Aqua Bulbs people use for plants so that the soil automatically gets damp whenever it gets dry. ive been doing this for about 2 or three months and ive had no problem and the water usually last for about 2 to 3 weeks. :)

I guess this is a prime example of what works for one may not work for all! :lol: If I happened to do this I would have a flooding in no time and bacterial blooms.

I guess if it works, kudos to you. :thumbsup::

Wait, a tote? That's an amazing idea! That's an inexpensive way to get sheer size! What do you do for the top?
