Exactly... and that would be a "good" thing. I fear, however, that this is not the case. As noted in the announcement, and I quote;
"
Mr. Mamoru Kodama personally approves and endorses each and every component manufactured by, and for, Russell Watergardens for the utmost in quality, workmanship, function, ease of maintenance, water quality, and Nishikigoi health and well being".
That statement alone makes me think it is a "bad" thing. Afterall, the Russell Watergarden system is a gravel bottom clone of ADI and the dozen or so other players feeding that market. This blanket statement of approval is most odd in my mind!
Kind Regards,
Bill
