So my 75 gallon tank has been cycled and nitrate, nitrite and ammonia have been at 0 for several days. We currently have 2 paradise gouramis, 2 corydoras and 9 platys. I’m looking for suggestions on what other fish I could add to the tank. I’ve also been thinking of relocating the platys to a...

Thanks fo Thanks for the info. We use the water from our outside hose mixed with the inside sink water to do water changes to ensure a major temperature fluctuation. I’ll definitely look into the GH. As of now, the pH of the tank is at 7.4
