wagonman Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 is the spring water from the speights brewery ok to use for a water change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 No, it causes the fish to get liver damage, vomiting, loss of coordination and spawning with ugly fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubbieBoy Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Fine to use if you really want to, but really not necessary... The water out of your Dunners tap is perfectly all right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljtan55 Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Dunedin water is really hard though... I dunno if the brewery water is any softer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubbieBoy Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Hasn't been my experience and I don't know where this urban myth originated. My KH and GH are practically 0 out of the tap and I have to supplement with bicarb just to get a reading. The water is so soft I can barely keep snails alive and I've never seen the slightest trace of deposits forming on kettle elements. I wonder if it depends on which reservoir your supply originates from... Test what comes out of your tap yourself but AFAIK Dunedin water is as soft as it gets with no dissolved minerals.
