Dorothy : How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

I have a Hague watermax water softener for my house. It takes most the junk out of the water but not enough to lower the PH or Carbonate hardness just the General Hardness. It is basically a big carbon bottle with enough capacity for your whole house.
Now when I test the water directly from the water main before the water softener the PH is around 8.4 and the GH is around 10.
I have an RO unit after the water softener when I test that water it has a ph of 6.4 and gh/kh of 0. I don't use it for fish though just for drinking because of some kidney problems lol.
