In the right concentrations, minerals are good!

For what it's worth, I use Bru'n water, and when it comes to science I'm kind of impaired. Bru'n water makes it easy for me. There are a lot of different spreadsheets/calculators out there, and it's probably a matter of finding one you like and sticking with it.
aside from changing the water profile based off a report. what do you guys think about this, can it be used without getting a report?-

With 5.2 I Have No Personal Experience

Just FYI, you should also be able to get a water report from the city you live in, many post them online. Just google water report for the city you live in or go to your city's website.
