You're gonna love it - my biggest complaint about the EZ is that the pitiful airpump they give isn't enough agitation/DO for the water if the sprayer pump isn't running 24/7 - I had a "pond smell" in mine before I installed the venturi, and after all I have is massive roots and no smell :)
The temps have gotten up to the low 80s in there (clones fully rooted) and they're still exploding because of all the DO from the venturi (not recommended temps, obviously) - I'm in love with venturis and am trying to put them into every system I have :)
Attached pic is from a week ago; the roots have completely overtaken the EZ at this point (slacking on transplanting because of playing with all my new toys, but I'ma do it tomorrow).
BTW, happy holidays to ya :)
