In episode 9, the crew breaks down part 2 of water chemistry!  We discuss conductivity, hardness, alkalinity and why they are important for stabilizing your water and pH.  We cover dissolved gasses, the dangers of extremely low oxygen and extremely high nitrogen in your system and what to do about it.  Next, we talk about phosphates, their source and what happens when levels get high.  Finally, we touch on iron, calcium and magnesium.  To finish the episode we talk about ORP which we can all agree isn't something we actually care about, right?

This podcast is brought to you by stonefish.  Despite its name, if you step on a stonefish you will not get stoned.  In fact quite the opposite.  The venomous  spine of stonefish has been sobering up beachgoers since before there were beaches.  Thank you stonefish!
