Crystal Red Shrimp and Aquasoil

[Krishs Bettas]

I have hard water at home and i am uable to keep them for that reason. So i was wondering if any has used aquasoil to make there hard water soft for the crystal red shrimp.

Aquasoil is recommend all over the net for CRS, although its also recommend you change it every 12 months!

I use aquasoil with my CRS and have to admit always have done, you could always add some wood as this can quite often help soften the water.

I've successfully kept a colony of CRS in London tap water with gravel as a substrate. So, soft water is not a prerequisite. I guess it depends on how robust the particular group of CRS you have\get are.
