Thanks for all of the replies. I am currently trying to thaw some snow
that fell (very unusual for Texas) and I will see how that is going to
work to maybe dilute some of the water. I got about 30 or 40 gallons
of well packed snow, who knows how much water that will be when it
melts...

Anyway...

Does anyone know where to find Calcium Carbonate? Will Calcium
Carbonate affect pH along with the gH and kH? Is it a household
substance, or something I'll have to buy from the LFS. Are there
other ways to increase gH? Also, what can I buy (short of an RO unit)
that will lower my kH? Is rainwater my only realistic option for
lowering kH?

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Merry Christmas and a proserous New Year.
