DETAquarium Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 Any preference on Liquid or Dry? Dry: Salty Shrimp GH+ Liquid: Lowkeys GH Mineral Balance x4 Quote
Soothing Shrimp Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 Lots and lots and lots of choices really. For powder, my fave is Salty Shrimp gh+. For liquids... well, there's an abundance to choose from. Which are you interested in? Quote
jimjim9001 Posted November 19, 2015 Author Report Posted November 19, 2015 Any really , just doing research before I go over to RO . Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote
Soothing Shrimp Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 Well, you have the classic argument of most economical vs best. SS powder is the most economical for me with 60+ tanks. Quote
jimjim9001 Posted November 19, 2015 Author Report Posted November 19, 2015 I have 4 nano tanks. And a 220 litre with fish , will RO be ok for fish and what minerals would I use for that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote
Vpier Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 SS gh+? Close, its SS GH/KH+ = Salty Shrimp GH/KH+ Your in the UK http://www.pro-shrimp.co.uk/salty-shrimp/98-salty-shrimp-shrimp-mineral-ghkh-85g.html Quote
Sandovalsbco Posted November 20, 2015 Report Posted November 20, 2015 I just ordered the SS GH/KH for my dream blue neos should I have just gotten the GH? From what little I read and ran with neos need KH as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Trotwood Posted November 20, 2015 Report Posted November 20, 2015 I've heard of lots of people using the GH+ successfully but I think that technically the GH/KH+ is designed for neos. I've been using it for several months myself and my neos seem quite happy. Quote
Soothing Shrimp Posted November 20, 2015 Report Posted November 20, 2015 Mine don't do well with SS gh/kh for some reason, but just fine with SS gh+. Quote
Soothing Shrimp Posted November 20, 2015 Report Posted November 20, 2015 Other people seem to be okay with gh/kh. Quote
OMG Aquatics Posted November 20, 2015 Report Posted November 20, 2015 Test your ro water for pH level. If it's within the range of what you want, you can get SS GH+ but if your ro water is like mine, 5.3 pH, I would have to get SS GH/KH+ to have my pH increased and stabilize pH.

Soothing Shrimp Posted November 20, 2015 Report Posted November 20, 2015 Yep. Strange as it seems, water can be different. Quote
