Dear friends
I have 4 questions that are all related, that i don't have hands on experience. Any question you can answer will help.
1-i am wondering, if 15 ppm of calcium and a GH of 100 ppm is ok for Ramshorn Snail is ok? an later even shrimps
2-i also wonder how fast a 1'' cuttlerbone in a 33 gallon will make a difference in ppm calcium, its 4.5 gram and how much time, it will take to dissolve in a spot where there not a lot of movement?
3-last but not least, i calculated 20ppm of mg with this formula. is it right?
i will up my mg to 20ppm more to a total of 120gh.
Hagen Nutrafin, Ca test in 10 ml
((20 x GH drops) - (25 x Ca drops)) /4.1 = Mg ppm
4: info: i calculated calcium in 10ml(usaly its 5ml). i added 14 drops then 6 drops then 2 drops, after the 2 drops, it tern color. is it right?
