Well for this dummy to be exact lol.
I did read the sticky on GH/KH etc, but it looked like it was mostly for plants, but as im looking into breeding shrimp (neocaridina) i wanted to start a thread for me here so maybe someone could explain it to me in layman terms without all the fluff/terminology.
Testing for those specific parameters is something ive not yet done, and know nothing about. I have looked up shrimp keepers various parameters so wanted to know what range i should be looking at, and how to achieve them.
Im guessing that if the results are not at either end of the spectrum its fine, but i want to maximise my chances of success, and get it as close as it needs to be. I have been looking at the various test kits, and do want one of the meters, but want to be sure about what im getting quality wise before i pull the trigger.
I have checked my local waters parameters. My Ph is slightly lower in the tank.
Cheers.
