Rasboras And 7.5 Ph

[friendlyfishy777]

I just got a second tank and the plan is to move over my current shoal of six Harlequins to it and add to their numbers and move over one of my cory groups too (with plans to add to their numbers), to free up space in what will be my mixed catfish tank. My PH is 7.5 and my Harlequins are doing great. Before I got them I checked all over the net that they'd be okay. I'm just wondering if any other Rasboras can live happily at 7.5ph, as I might like to add some other types of Rasboras to my new 30 gallon tank.

I have chilli rasboras living happily in a pH of 7.8. Low pH fish can live happily in a high pH, as long as they are acclimatised sufficiently. The other way round is more problematic, I believe.

Like lock says, just acclimate slowly. You should be able to keep any Rasbora you want to at that ph.

As long as the pH is stable they should be fine. Stability is more important

Awesome, thanks for the advise!
