Why make your own for a small 20 gallon tank? It won't save you money and it'll be lots of work.

Just pickup a product like ESV B-Ionic two part. It's cheap and has all the minerals in proper ratio's.

But if you really like to tinker you can make your own.

ESV B-Ionic is one of the best!

Redsea calk is the optimal solution for small systems.

True enough. I have a large system so it saves me a ton of money. For a small tank the store bought 2 part might be a better route.

I've heard a lot of good things about ESV B-Ionic. I just ordered some today from JL Aquatics to give it a try since I had a few other things to get anyway. By the way they have free shipping on orders over $100 right now.
