No worries. Thanks for the advice!

Thanks for the advice. Re the albino Cory's. Would adding them in addition overstock the tank? I'd presume so?

Dimensions are 14 inches deep, 14 inches high (water, I measured to the height of the sand) and just over 29 inches long The pH is 6, well possibly less as this is the reading on the test kit. Hardness I'd need to check later as I can't recall but my water is pretty soft. The Gourami has...

I've changed my post as some of the info was wrong. No longer plan on putting in any ember tetras and there are in fact only 4 cherry barbs. Still reckon increasing schooling fish numbers is best?

It is, yes

Hi, I'm looking for advice/opinions on stocking. I've posted before about having issues with live bearers due to soft and acidic waters. Instead I'm going for different fish and so far have had a lot more success. Below I have included my stocking, and was thinking of adding albino Cory's to...

Kind of matches the fish that have survived in my tank and the ones that have died... mollies, guppies never last which after testing I can see why. Although one singular guppy remains a year on. Will have a look now at other stocking and get that going over the next few weeks. Thanks all...

Hello I have done further tests and replied with them dKH - didn't even go blue, was faintly yellow (practically clear) from the first drop dGH - 6

So after further testing of hardness using API liquid test kit the gH test changed colour in 6 drops, and the kH didn't even go blue at all.

Thanks, will do a bit more testing and read the suggested links and perhaps rethink some stocking to better suit as opposed to changing ph and water parameters

This was also my thoughts. At the moment there's some neons, dwarf gourami and a singular guppy. Reason for the singular guppy is the rest of the group died, rapidly, which made me retest water I'm aware ph could be lower than 6 as this is the lowest reading the test can do, however at the...

Yeah this is what I have read so have been looking into it. My only concern would be, during water changes I would be adding water that was of a lower PH again into it, this would cause fluctuations surely?

My 100L Tank has a PH of 6, at least this is what it reads when testing (using API Master Test Kit). I was wondering if I should go about trying to raise the PH and if so, what the best way to go about doing this is?

A dehumidifier runs all day in the room where the 6g is, the 30g is in the front room so it doesn't go in there due to noise

Hi, I have around 36g worth of aquariums. One 30g and one 6g I was wondering whether this amount would produce a lot of humidity for it to be problematic? The 6g is a fluval edge so has a complete glass top and the gap is also covered by a plastic grated top The 30g also has a hood, granted...
