I am moving into a new house next month and just got the tests results back on the water in the house. Its well water so there is no chlorine or other commercial water additives and everything looks good except the house has a water softener in it and it is putting the salt level up to 120ppm. Will this be a problem to rays? I plan to set up a couple of large tanks/ponds for my favorite ray species after I get settled in and want to make sure I have all things sorted out.
If the salt level would be a problem would it be best to add in a water supply source before the softener or is there a way to filter the salt out?
I have listed the other parameters below.
pH 7.5
NO2 and NO3 0.00ppm
NO4 .47ppm
Hardness CaCO3 .42 ppm
Chloride 43ppm
Sulfate 26ppm
Turbidity (no idea wth this is...lol) .87 NTU
*Sodium 120 ppm
Everything else was undetectable.
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!
