when i added
cc to my filter, it raised my
kh from 2 to 10. at the same time my
gh went from almost nothing to 10. is a
gh of 10 bad? could it be from the
cc? do i need to worry? the only way my high
kh is a problem at this point is that if i want 30ppm of co2, i need to keep my
ph at about 6.8/6.9, which is less than ideal for my snails, who prefer more neutral or even higher
ph. however, there is so much calcium in the water from the
cc, that this may offset the problem slightly...
i'm just confused about how
gh factors into things...
sorry to hijack your threasd sherry--but you and i have similar setups
