My tap water is quite acid (between 7, and 6.5). It is also very soft (GH 50 ppm, KH 20 ppm). I was trying to correct this and I added some salt I bought in the pet shop: "SERA mineral salt". 5g of salt per100 liters are suposed to increase 0.6ºdH. I suppose 0.6º correspond to roughly 10ppm, but about dH I'm kindda lost.
I was wondering if this is the best way to adjust it and how to use it. Or maybe I should use some sodium bicarbonate, or some other kind of avaliable salt (food salt I find around here is with added iod and sometimes fluor or then mineral salt, so that could be a problem).
I was also wondering how I should take care of the acidity problem: are these products I find in pet stores the best/only solution?
Or are such values not worth the trouble and they are well accepted by the axies?
I'm having some problem having the N cycle ander control, so I don't wan't to have problem with this too...
