I believe epson salts are composed of Magnesium Sulfate and can be used for the 
purpose of raising GH.  Seashells are also usefull in making water harder.

Hi Fran

Places like Home Depot has it in 25 lb bags for < $4

AFA the issue of lead in Dolomite, Thanks John for food for thought here. I
know that years ago Dolomite became unpoopular as human supplement due to
contaminates.  Baking soda is great for shifting pH but for those with
planted tanks, it can't provide the calcium and magnisium needed for the
plants. Since it is commonally used in farming and on lawns and gardens to
"sweeten" acid soil, I will do some reserarch and get back to the list.
Guess some research on effects of lead on our fish may also be in order. In
the meantime, DO NOT eat your Endlers. ;->

Growing old is inevitable; growing up is optional.
