Fino al mese scorso era di circa 5,60-5.80, adesso dopo un cambio d'acqua massiccio del 60-70% circa, si è alzato a 6.15, che non sarebbe un valore nemmeno troppo malvagio, se non per il fatto che mi impedisce di usare l'impianto a CO2 gassosa che ho appena acquistato.
Prima di iniziare ad erogare, dovrei alzare il pH di almeno 1 unità.
A parte le rocce calcaree (introvabili nei negozi di animali in zona) e l'osso di seppia, reperibile in qualche maniera ma piuttosto grande e che dovrei in qualche modo di mimetizzare, su internet ho trovato delle buste di carbonato di calcio al 100% di granulometria piuttosto fine.
Considerato quanto spiegato in questo articolo
articoli/af/chimica-dell-acquario/304-o ... BwaWEiXQ==
e cioè che l'osso di seppia andrebbe polverizzato, col carbonato di calcio in polvere risolverei il problema. In pratica, acquisterei un osso di seppia già polverizzato in partenza.Che ne pensate? E' una buona idea?
Il prodotto in questione è questo e sembra carbonato di calcio purissimo al 100%, quindi introdurrei solo ione calcio e ione carbonato in acquario, nient'altro.

Calcium Carbonate (Chalk Powder) - Ultra Fine Flour
Chalk Paint or Animal Feed Supplement
Our Calcium Carbonate is high purity Animal feed Ultra Fine Powder (Flour); it can also be referred to as Limestone Flour. Its mined and produced in the UK, which is why we can offer some of the most competitive prices.
Calcium Carbonate is found in rocks and sediments all over the world. Its produced by mining minerals rich in Calcium Carbonate then purifying, drying and the end product is then milled to a fine flour. Calcium Carbonate is found in shells, pearls and eggshells.
