Here's a silly question: Doesn't peat soften the water in hard water areas? or how does the chemistry of that work? acutally i live in an area with very very soft water so i haven't looked into RO filters.. but a friend (someone also on this list) recently moved to another area which has very hard water and he purchased a ro filter..? am i missing the point here? could someone please explain to me? or has it been posted on www.thekrib.com already since i haven't checked there before posting this message thanks Raymond Wong http://welcome.to/myapisto ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the apistogramma mailing list, apisto@listbox.com.
