Doesnt the + sign mean they are polarized??1.5µf/35vdc

Yes it does..Doesnt the + sign mean they are polarized??

ESR is very bad, very bad Mr. particleman7.This is my opinion and my opinion only. When replacing tants with aluminum electrolytic I will increase the capacitance in order to match ESR unless I can fit a low ESR aluminum organic polymer then I will sometimes even go slightly lower in capacitance.
That sounds like a very confused and complicated approach to such a straightforward issue.This is my opinion and my opinion only.

I guess I'm confused then. I just measured the ESR on a 6.8uf 35V dipped tant it came out to about 1 on my ESR meter. Then I measured a 6.8uf 35V aluminum can it came out at about 2.8 Now go ahead and replace 25 of those dipped tants with 1 ESR with 25 aluminum cans with close to 3 ESR. What do you have?That sounds like a very confused and complicated approach to such a straightforward issue.
What do you have?
As I've elsewhere written, I suggest not using tantalum capacitors as this is not a socially responsible material to use.
Tantalum is a conflict mineral which funds civil wars, warlords, and horrific brutality, slavery, rape, mutilation, and murder.
Here are few links I pulled using google:

Tantalum is fungible, and thus cannot be easily tracked back to a source. Many companies deliberately lie about the sources because who wants to use materials which are cruelty in solid form.
We have access to capacitors not built on human suffering. Better to use those.
WTF I love Tantalum capacitors even more now.
