I read "HOW TO MINERALIZE SOIL SUBSTRATES" by Aaron Talbot.
I'm going to try it on my new DIY 24 G tank.
I have two questions:
1. Our city water already has an abundance of calcium in it. Do I really need to add Dolomite? I think can dose Magnesium using Epsom salts. And I can control PH by other means.
2. How long will mineralized soil substrate last? Will i have to do it all over again in six months or so?
I plan to use Daphnia to control green water. I use Daphnia and mosquito larva out of a rain barrel for my fish.
Thank you
