What ph is it, up to 8 is ok but if it was much higher then i would check everything again.

Did you use a liquid test kit for the tests?

Chris

yeah it is liquid test kit. ive not done a higher ph test as of yet will do it now tho to make sure

its looking like its about 7.8 ph is that ok ? how do i reduce?

 

[chrisdoesntmiss]

Nah, thats absolutely fine. No need to worry about it.

What are you stocking btw

Chris

 

[dalewatkinson]

nothing as yet in the new tank im going to get some clown loach and panda's other than that ive no idea what to get in there. maybe some shrimps

 

[dalewatkinson]

what sort of fish keep in schools? i would love to see that in my tank. i have some tetras in my little tank about 9 of them and they just swim on there own for the most part

 

[chrisdoesntmiss]

Most tetras will school but only when they are in a large enough group or are scared. You will seldomly see a very tight school in a very maintained and quiet aquarium.

Neons are always a good tetra, available everywhere.

yeah its a shame that you cant see that in your home but i guess its only a good thing that they are happy and so are apart from each other romeing

 

[chrisdoesntmiss]

Thats true, if the tank is big enough then they will school. Its always a good thing though, it shows they are happy and content.
