Re: Aquatic Plants Digest V3 #20
In the mixture everyone seems to like there is 2 cups sugar, 1 tsp yeast, 1
tsp baking soda, and the rest water.
Q- What is the purpose of using warm water to begin with?
Q- What is the purpose of the baking soda? I did read some where that it
buffers
the mixture and makes it last longer.
Q- What yeast are you supposed to use? I tried this for about a week and
lost 2
Discus and 20 neons. I was wondering if i used some different kind of
yeast. It
seemed to be the only variable that could change from user to user since
sugar
and water are all the same.
History- 45 gal tall tank, RO water with partial tap water for the elements,
80 ppm
hardness, PH 6.5 and steady, 85 degreee temp. For any of you
who want
to take a stab at why the fish died.
Thank you,
