somehow whenever i add sodium bicarbonate to the pail i used to age overnight with anti chlorine/chlormine treament, my tank has traces of white coating the tank wall and even the sponge. but they got dissipated after a day in main tank
why? is it that i put too much or the sodium bicarbonate did not dissolve properly? |

QUOTE(Allan @ Wed 12 May 2004 06:30 PM) It's good to know that applying anti-chlorine first is fine too. Thanks. But how come you add salt too and what's the amount? Too little it's a waste, and too much too frequently is said to cause parasites to develope immunity. Cheers Har ??? add salt frequently also not good meh ??? I always add 0.2% ( abt 260g into my 86 litres tub or 50g per 28 litres of water change ) I got the above amount from the AquaCaculator at RG. Poll Poll Poll Do U guys add salt everytime U change water ? If yes, wat percentage ? |
