Peter and Cary have added their 10 cents worth, how about the rest of you guys?
Do you use calcium/shellgrit and why? Is it because your water is soft to start with? Is it because Ron Bowman said to? Is it because you believe it will save you from running into trouble with buffering problems due to organic acid overload?. Did you eve

r try no calcium and got problems? There are lots of these questions that could be validated to some extent by survey of opinion and reasons for that opinion.
I for one wouldn't be bothered with multiple measurement of calcium levels etc and I'm sure that if I had to it would detract from my enjoyment of the hobby. Spouting the opinions and enjoying the banter to and fro is part of the charm of the hobby ( and

of this list for that matter) for me.
