Wanted to get some feedback about the affects of a whole house water softener on tropical plants and fish. It is obvious that the main change will be the hardness of the water, however online research has indicated some potential issues with how the water softener softens the water (Basically exchanging ions of different elements). The problem is the "salt ions" left in the water? Again, the water is fresh water, but softened with salt. Online research has conflicting information and none of the big names in YouTube really have touched on it.

Hello,
Wanted to get some feedback about the affects of a whole house water softener on tropical plants and fish. It is obvious that the main change will be the hardness of the water, however online research has indicated some potential issues with how the water softener softens the water (Basically exchanging ions of different elements). The problem is the "salt ions" left in the water? Again, the water is fresh water, but softened with salt.

Thanks
