well....not me....the tank
I cant get rid of them. I cant get water that doesnt have them. I dont know what to do. I think my main problem is the water im using. Ive been using Glacier water(one of those RO drinking water machines at the grocery store). I didnt really know anywhere else to get water so I hadnt really done any test on it. So before I did my last water change I test the water right before I added it to the tank. It had a phosphate reading of about .2. If your trying to remove phophates, a water change with phosphates already in it doesnt do much good. So now Im stuck. I dont know where else to get my water. I was already paying 30 cents a gallon. I would rather use distilled but that 80 cents a gallon. OH...sorry....the tank is only a 10 gal so I dont go through that much water. Any suggestions?
