Ways to increase GH

Adding limestone to the aquarium (this will also increase kH which in turn will increase pH)
Adding calcium carbonate will raise GH and KH.

Can try Mosura Mineral plus, will help alter the GH abit too.

Hmm... I'm not so pro, can anyone out there help? Maybe Koji or Silane can help answer your questions.
