Title: Tank water PH change it easy...
Post by: on June 27, 2005, 12:11:00 AM
I have Tank water now and the PH come out at about 6.0 ruffly and i think that kicks ass cause i love my earth eaters and they are loveing it at the moment but run it in a normal Brita Filter that go''s on the tap it comes out about 7.2 ??  How cools that something they dont put on the label hey. I was thinking thats kind of really conviniant as you can use soft water for americans and discus and then turn switch and bam good for afrians not that im really keeping many at the moment.<

Just wondering what sort of PH and carbonate hardness readings do people generally get from your tankwater (assuming this is rainwater from your roof not bore water).
