I had a re read bob your right.
I dont think you'll get the TDS lower than the tap water John.

I did say I was bad at explaining myself.
How are mini and the tds doing?
Cheers
John

Gazza that’s a compliment to your water management skills.
It seems that my poor way of explaining myself is confusing the issue on tds. :oops:
So I will try not to mention it again (not promising though lol) :wink:
Or try to word things better.

390 this morning John.

Does show though, that however good you filter is, you cant beat changing a bit of water to reduce the organic loading - especially if over stocked and over feeding.

Coming down nicely bob.
I was going to suggest asking dunken if he puts clay in the food, but that would have caused a rise in the ponds GH reading. But even that’s down on the input water.
So I guess that’s a no no.
You have convinced me I will have to get a replacement.
Over stocked over fed. I wish lol :cry:

Actually John, I don't believe clay make much of a difference as most all of is is suspended and not dissolved in the water column.

Your rights Scott don’t know what I was thinking of there. :oops:

Cheers gazza. Any way if there’s not enough room in the pond, I have loads of room in mine. :wink:

Bob have you checked the nitrate, if its not being gassed of by the shower could be responsible for a large amount of deficit
