The impact of tubing sizes

what sort of liquid do you use....and do you use any additives to prevent jets from blocking?

Filtered tap water. No additives. Have a silver block which acts as a natural biocide. Never had any issues for 30 months straight now with the exact same water that I stuck in all that time ago (I have a reservoir). The same system had a G5 in it before, and now a G7. The odd time I've opened up the blocks up they've been as clean as new. Not one single jet has ever been blocked, and this is even on a G7 which has ~1/50" (~0.5mm) diameter jets (i.e. ~40% of the orifice size of a regular Storm that most people know).

Seriously, it's the additives that most people stick in that causes blockages. Clean your system's components out correctly at the beginning, filter your water, and use a natural biocide (aren't silver blocks nice? ), and there's never a problem.

The "worst" problem I have is that my tubing has gone slightly cloudy, but it's still translucent.
