SRC Member AlfaRomeo Posted October 19, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted October 19, 2004 yeah.. best to supplement the ARM with grotech MG PRO. more stable Mg levels in my experience. add about 10% of the total media. Must wash both ARM and MG Pro before use.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member Kenji80 Posted October 19, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted October 19, 2004 Anywhere to get A.R.M in large quantity. The blue signboard said that they might not be bringing in anymore because of difficulty in selling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member AlfaRomeo Posted October 20, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted October 20, 2004 Didnt manage to find any shop that carries the big bag of media so ended up buying from a fellow reefer instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member AlfaRomeo Posted October 20, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted October 20, 2004 It will not soften if you maintain a Ph of about 6.7-6.8 but will definately turn to mush if u drive it lower like say 6.2 - 6.4. In my experience lah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
