    Do submersible pumps leech iron,magnese

    Talking to the guy at the hydro shop and he said i shouldnt run my submersible pump all the time but on timer instead. He said that the magnetic motor is basicly a electro-magnet and it attracts and sucks iron and magnese out of the water and plants. But a lot of DWC growers run their pumps all...
