So I've been having trouble keeping res temps down do to location of the set-up.I just put a A/C I had in the garage in to help lower temp of the room.
Temp was staying around 80-84,I now have the A/C going full blast to cool room and will set it to 72 or so once room is cool.
Problem is I started getting root rot I believe.Brown,slightly slimy roots.Been adding peroxide little by little to try and stop any algae and stuff but it wasn't working so hot.Decided to try adding a little 3% HP and a little water in a spray bottle.I lifted the roots out the water to where the brown color stopped sprayed waited about 10 secs and put them back in the water.I then took the feeder lines out the basket and washed the roots off.
They look great now but was wondering if doing that was safe.I figured if I washed it off fairly quickly it would be ok.
