I'd like to use a little peat to lower initial input from holding tank.
Question: I heard a lot of people talk about getting spagnum peat moss. I've used this and don't really get anything out of it. Do I need to use the real dark stuff, that looks more like dirt.
Shame really the spagnum was much cleaner to use.
I am using fluval peat granulars now, but it's a bit expensive.

Thx Dave

I use Canadian Peat from Home Depot. Works well for me.

Hey O,
is there anything else in the canadian peat that will mess with the water. One bag of Scott's peat said 100% peat, does it matter?

Thx Dave
