My tap water is well water and I want to get the hardness up some. The ph is high enough but the hardness is "soft" . Is there an additive that will raise it?
DeFeKt said:No one mentioned until now that they mix the baking soda and salts in before a waterchange. This gives the impression that it is OK to mix it in while the fish are in there.
Couple of questions to ponder:
1,Does rain have the same parameters as the waterbody it is falling into and around? or is it mixed before hand?
2,Have you ever had to raise your soft water to hard water with fish in it or did you start with hard water? If so how did you raise it?
3,How much easier and steadier would it be to just drop some cc or rocks into your tank or filter as opposed with the method you are more then likely going to give for Question #2b?
