Fish Fanatic
Hiya guys,
Tank: 126, 4 1/2weeks old
Occupants: 4 platys [in there for 2 1/2 weeks]
Amonia 0.25ppm [daily water changes to help]
Nitrite 0.00 ppm
Nitrate 0.00 ppm
PH 7.8
I would love [when the tank is cycled in about 4 weeks or so, wish I'd known about Fishless Cycling] to get a couple of Dwarf Gouramis but I notice they need tank with a ph of 6.8. Naturally my tap water seems to have a ph range of 7.2 to 7.8.
Is there anyway of getting this down? Without using those dodgy ph adjust products? I would *love* to keep Dwarf Gouramis, but obviously I can't if my ph is too high
Would adding plants help?
