The most you have to pay 2 red notes for the mosura foods.

Exclamation ask

hi all i'm new here and i live in Indonesia, but very interesting after read your articles.

i have question :

1) the optimum amount of TDS value for breeding CRS is ?
2)my aquarium TDS with CRS/BCS, cherry shrimp, also white bee have tds value = 285

now i'm have plan to :
add carbon active and change it every 2 weeks
change water with RO water everyday
stop add any fertilizer to my plant.
maybe i'm also will stop to feeding my aquarium species in next few days

please correct me if i'm wrong, also please share any solution to make my tds down.

thanks before

I dont think you should top up with shizhen & mineral plus but if its isn't broken, why fixed it?

If you're topping up with tap water, the ShiZhen is required to remove the chloramine.
However, as water tends to get harder and harder if you just top up without changing water, I would advice against adding anymore mineral plus. Otherwise, you may end up with very hard water, and that'll be bad for shrimp molting.

Best way is still to be hardworking and remove some (25%?) water during one of your top ups at least once a week.

I set aside 10L of water with shizhen & mineral plus for my weekly water change. But due to evaporation i top up with it. So do i need to top up the tank? Or wait until my weekly water change?

In other words, i can top up with water containing shizhen. Just to replace the water that is evaporated. During weekly water change, then i will top using water with shizhen & mineral plus. Am i rite to say that?
