Long story short, I moved forgot the new place have soft water and just set the tank up like I always did so I didn't bother to test it. Then it dawned on me I have soft water now tested it. And the KH way above where should be (I don't have the test strip on me to tell you what all the readings were I'm at work on break right now) I went to pet store that I got my fish from and got a couple of their fish bags full of their tank water which I used to dilute my soft water which help improve a little bit but it's still not ideal. The fish still seem to be doing fine but I've read it can take a couple days for soft water to affect them. My idea is everyday to swap out the tank water with properly prepared water about a gallon at a time (10g tank) stressful on the fish or should I just do a one-and-done water swap? Stupid rookie mistake feel free to belittle me.
