Re: White Water
Eric,
They call it white-water because of the appearance. There is a lot of
"anorganic" material that gives it this color (like a muddy appearance -
light). Unlike Black-water which has a more tea-looking color to it. From
what I understand, the chemical make-up is different between the two waters.
I believe Black-water is a much cleaner water. Water chemisrty is one of
those things as a cichlid collector/breeder that is important or so I have
discovered the hard way. ;-)
