Does anybody run across the old Aquarium Stock Company's Rift Lake Cichlid
Salts? Those used to be commonly available though area shops and less
expensive than the other cichlid salt brands. A level tablespoon of their
salts in a 32 gallon holding comtainer of R.O. water gave water with a
hardness of about 80 ppm.

Thanks and all the best,
