Hi Barry,

When the first time I post this topic, I only guessed the kH value because I was never succeed to keep soft-water type stem plants in my aquarium. The current value (kH 4) is from water laboratory.

NO3 = 0;
That value is from my tap water reading, not from the tank. Soon, I'll go to check the tank too.

Jeff.

For those who don't think is possible read Kasselman article (TAG) from BONITO Brazil, it will make you wonder when you read the water parameters, both water column and substrate.
