Hi all,
I've got my tank set up with Aquasoil and injecting co2. I've always been under the impression from what I've read that having water with KH depletes the nutrients in active substrates quickly? I've also read that some of the plants I have need a KH of 4-15. Is the plant going to suffer if I don't? Currently I use RO water with Salty Shrimp GH+ so the KH is very low (0-1). Should I start using some KH or keep it as it is?
Many thanks,
Chris
