then i guess the pH/kH chart would be the most accurate.. good luck!

Your drift wood is huge. Think it will take a long time before all the tannins disappear.

Awesome looking tank bro evo!

Btw I once had an issue with yellow water...but mine was due to my DW as I did not soak it prior to using it. I could not stand the yellow one bit and went to do some research.

Apparently, Seachem Purigen can remove the yellowish tint. It took mine 1 day before all the yellow tint is gone....mine was a 3footer though. You might want to check it out
