"Wonder Shell, Mineral Cation Supplement; Aquarium Forums Hall of Shame"
EXCERPT:
"This article is about the official AAP/Weco Wonder Shells for which American Aquarium Products (AAP) IS THE ONLY OFFICIAL FULL LINE SELLER of this product and is the retailer whose copious amounts of experience AND research made this product available to the world instead of the regional product it was for years."
AND
"Even more importantly, in March of 2011, I met with another researcher (not in the aquarium industry) who discovered my Aquarium Redox article dealing with how much aquatic life (and all life) is affected by a properly balanced Redox (magnetically balanced is a term he used).
He noted how badly out of touch the aquarium hobby is with current scientific research.
He was surprised to find such a well researched and "current" article from an aquarium hobby web site.
Further Reference: The Importance of Redox and Magnetic Balance of Aquarium, Pond Water
This ties directly to AAP Wonder Shells.
Unlike many anecdotal, poser experts who never even noted the importance of Redox Balance; this researcher understood how a Wonder Shell could aid (again not a cure all) to establishing this Redox/Magnetic balance of aquarium water.
To call Wonder Shells part of a "snake oil" scheme (as one person put it) is ignorance at its most profound!!
There is no way an honest person can read either the Wonder Shell article or the many articles I've referenced and make the statements that they are just scheme."
