Limestone
    #17295763 - 11/28/12 07:54 AM (11 years, 2 months ago)

So,I live where it is everywhere,so would it be a good idea to gather up some to make the ultimate Loph mix,or does limestone really not matter?

In general, I'd say no it's not needed, and has potential to cause problems in the future, especially if then watering with tap water.

The rainfall receieved in habitat is slightly acidic, the alkalinity of the soil due to limestone acts as a growth inhibitor.
