Water question...
    #5478407 - 04/04/06 09:04 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

I live on a lake (and with all the rain recently)... the water is looking great! Should I use the lake water that is full of nutrients and organisms, or should I just forget it and use bottled mineral water for my substrate preparation?

Lake water works fine, as does bottled or even tap water. I use regular tap water for everything except mixing agar. The organisms in the lake water won't help as they'll be 86'd by the PC.

Thanks, I won't worry too much about it then.
