Flourite question
Hi, I have a 160L and am preparing to a 900L new tank. I am currently
using ADA's amazonia as substrate (for 3 years now, and its still going quite well), but since ADA's aqua soil alter water chemistry in a very large degree, especially when new, I would like to try something else. Flourite comes into mind, but I like to hear from you guys that whether Flourite alter water chemistry in ANY WAY? KH, GH? Thanks |

om... Hi, I have a 160L and am preparing to a 900L new tank.

Flourite comes into mind, but I like to hear from you guys that whether Flourite alter water chemistry in ANY WAY? KH, GH? Thanks I recently changed over to flourite. I have yet to see an effect on PH or GH. I don't track KH, so I can't comment on that. It's only been two weeks though. I haven't seen any effect on the plants yet. However, it looks a hell of a lot better than that other CR@@ I had in the tank. Strangely enough, my whiptail catfish seem to like it much better. I think the darker color makes them more comfortable, but that's just a guess. Joe |

Flourite question
Thanks for you guys reply. Sounds perfect substrate for me. Now the
only thing concern me is that Flourite actually much more than ADA's Aqua Soil in Hong Kong, and filling up a 200 gal is no joke... And the worst thing is that only a few shops keep Flourite, which left me no place for bargain. But if its really that good, I guess I would just go for it!

Flourite question
Try this place, Big Al's online. They have it for $11 US a bag. I dont know
how much shipping would be or even if they would ship to Hong Kong, but if you need a bunch of it it might work out to be cheaper. Heres the link: http://www.bigalsonline.com/catalog/...tegory_id=2283 |
