HandS Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 The GH in all my tanks is around 60ppm. Id like to know how to increase it, ive heard somthing about epsom salts but i have concerns about scailess fish ie. clown loach, bgk. I know some fish like soft water (like rams) but others also like harder water. Also my KH is testing at less than 10ppm, again how do i rase this and what should it be :-? Thanks Helen and Shane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanksman Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 If you use sea shells or limestone that should raise the Gh and the Kh at the same time. Otherwise see the "sera" team at world of water. try this link http://www.drhelm.com/aquarium/chemistry.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
