Ok, I tried my darndest to search this but no luck. So….
I use Aquamira Drops to treat my water, and then after waiting I add some Hammer Perpetum. My question is, do I need to wait to add the drink mix, or can I add it while the water is treating?
(BTW, I know that I CAN do whatever I like with my water. I'm just wondering if it is written anywhere from Aquamira or another source that this makes AM less effective.)

Jul 31, 2013 at 6:31 pm #2011309Generally, most fruity flavors have some acid in them. This could render the AM, drops and tabs, inefective.Sorry, I do not know the concentrations.
