Well, if could have a constant KH of 6 in my tank, I probably wouldn't need
to reduce it. For some reason, the KH of my tank water is 8 degrees, no
matter how much water I change. But I also wanted to know if I could really
use this method, just in case. Tap water chemistry can change, such as
seasonally.
