Since there's no need for anti-freeze blue juice, which seems to contain some anti-fungal or another, a lot of bottles begin to grow the same stuff that shows up on the back of a bachelor's shower curtains. A bit of bleach kills it okay, but doesn't knock the organic matter down small enough to get through the tubes and jets. But keep a clean second set, and clean them instead of buying fresh ones when you swap them. -- Good luck, Buddy Buddy Donnelly donnellynopsamabay.rr.com
