All right well I am going to be getting a few fish in sometime within the next few months that need soft water, not necessarily low pH, so I've been reading and it sounds like my home water softener is safe, correct?


  • But I've also been reading that it would need to buffered if I were to use it so that the pH doesn't drop, how should I buffer this softened water?
I am assuming buffering with crushed coral or anything of the like would just reharden it, defeating the purpose in softening it, so...


  • How do I buffer it with out increasing the hardness again?
