    Dave, this is the one I buy http://www.amazon.com/Davidsons-Tea-...=1418510361989. Place a small amount in a media bag and set it in the tank. I doubt the small amount will soften the water. I use RO to do that.

    There are more benefits then the ones mentioned here such as having a calming effect to altums and adding antioxidants and antibacterial components according to the folks at finarama http://www.finarama.com/forum/.

    Concur, as well as is stronger recommended for humans for his health beneficts, the antioxidants propities make it an anticancer, blood pressure, collict for babies. some people claim it helps with people suffering from AIDS. There is no caffein in it.
    some researches using on frogs to avoid diseases.
