I was thinking off knocking a batch up and wondered what the people here do for making their own solutions. Any tips appreciated before I have a go?
I was going to use the method off here http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/gener ... d-how.html or has opinions changed on the best way to do it?
I can get 5ltrs of distilled water from Halfords for £3.69, has anyone used this before? I do have an API de-ioniser which I haven't used for years so I'm not sure what condition the resins are in and will have probably perished by now.
I was only thinking of doing the link method because it means I can get away with 1x5ltr bottle, the method on James would need slightly more than 5ltrs.
Does the ref solution work ok with the orange type ph solution as well as the bromo blue? I got some with my drop checker but I already have AE bromo/4dkh mix and haven't used it so would like to try this and compare the results.
