| Lam, you want to stay ahead of the chronic building of pollution and exhaustion of valuable essential minerals and nutrients. The trick here is to keep the ideal parameters from moving away from that point. Staying ahead is most important. Especially when it comes to buffering capacity of water. The alkaline reserve associated with soft water is not great. If you waited too long, you would experience a pH crash- usually over night in the wee morning hours.
So having a discipline here, as opposed to reacting when the parameters move, is a good thing- a proactive thing. - JR |
