I have soft water with from the tap almost 0 KH and low GH and wanted to add a new substrate to my shrimp tank when I do a total clean out on it soon.
This tank will be used for some Tangerine Tiger or OEBT. I figure I can use a remineralizer for the water part of this. Recommendations and reasons accepted.
Along these same lines of thought, I'm considering Cardinal shrimp down the road when I get the water thing figured out, and they prefer a very hard water.
Any opinions about using Cichlid sand or something? Most other substrates for shrimp lower/buffer pH.
I don't have much experience changing my water in this way. Open for discussion... Thanks!
