Hal, what is your pH, KH out of the tap? ~ jan

This morning about 10 AM.
pH 7.4, KH Pale 2 degrees, GH 4 degrees
Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Test Kit

The water comes out of the ground close to pure here, but lime/calcium
of some sort is added to keep from eating up all the metal pipes.

Regards,

Hal
