Abstract
An indexable cartridge and method that is useable in either a stagnant fluid environment or in a moving fluid environment with the indexable cartridge floatable in a stagnant fluid environment and securable in a moving fluid environment with the indexable cartridge having a housing having one or more diffusion ports and a sleeve having one or more diffusion ports indexable to a diffusion port alignment through resilient yielding of the sleeve while a set of ribs inhibit lateral flow therebetween.

A method of indexing a dispenser to change a first diffusion rate to a second diffusion rate comprising:
- placing a dispensable material into a housing having a one or more diffusion ports with the housing normally linked to a sleeve having one or more diffusion ports;
- torqueing the sleeve with respect to the housing with sufficient torque so as to cause a portion of the sleeve to resiliently yield to allow an indexing rotation of the sleeve with respect to the housing to thereby change an alignment of the one or more diffusion ports of the housing with the one or more diffusion ports of the sleeve.
