So I purchased a 2nd hand tank which was all cycled etc, it was emptied & refilled within a few hours & been left for a few days now.
I have just done a water test & discovered it’s been filled with soft water through our water softener & not the standard tap water! (Company told us the outside tap was left off the softener but turns out it wasn’t).
Question now is what can be done to rectify?
Is it going to mean a complete water change, or can it be fixed by adding something into the current water? Was hoping to start adding fish this weekend.
Readings are:
Nitrate 25
Nitrite 0
GH 3 (53 ppm)
KH 20 (357 ppm)
PH 8
Chlorine 0
