Two weeks ago when I took my water test to the LFS my KH was high, so they told me to stop adding the KH additive and just add the CA. They said that should help. Last Sunday when the KH was low I started adding 20ml of it each day also. I will recheck everything in the morning. Where can I get the items you all mentioned?
thanks
