Hi all,
Just wondering:
Is there such a thing? At what ph does it occur?
What symptoms do fishes show when it happens?
I know that KH plays a big part at buffering but what else helps keeping ph from crashing?
How low KH still keeps ph crash at bay?
I have a 15 gallon that has about 1/4 of...
Hi,
Has anyone any experience about fry raised on artificial foods (breeder feeding) versus food they find in the tank?
Any difference in growth or health?
The reason I´m asking is I just found a couple of bigger Cacatuoides fry in my main tank. I haven´t fed them anything so they have...
Hi,
I just bought my first 2 Apistogramma 3 days ago.
I have never seen such interesting behaviour and I´ve kept tanks for 20 years!
The sand shifting and disputes are really interesting to follow.
But I have no idea whether they are disputing over territories or are spawning.

Hi,
How can I make my blackwater extract more dense?
I boiled 5 extra large sized Catappa leaves in 1,5 L of water for about 10 minutes and that mix does not seem tint water. The mix was dark brown in color.
Can I mix different sources of tannins in my "soup"? I have sphagnum peat, alder...

Has anyone here tried to breed these?
Any good articles/sites on subject?
I´d imagine conditioning only with live food?
I don´t have an RO-unit but I do have access to Di water. Will that do? Should I add peat extract to that water?
How should I acclimate my tetras to that water? My...
Hi,
In 6 months I have lost 5 tetras without a trace.
Can Megalechis thoracata or Crossocheilus oblongus make them disappear?
I don´t think my Betta Splendens harem can be responsible.
Hi,
What is the correct way of using conductivity meter?
I always have to calibrate it before measurements. Because it seems to lose its calibration by, say 200µS.
The manual says you only have to calibrate it after 10 measurements or 2 weeks.
Have I "polluted" my calibration fluid when the...
Hi!
I bought some sphagnum peat from a local garden center. What is the best way to add it into aquarium during water change?
Is there a limit how much i can add leaves into aquarium? I really like the look of leaf litter and my ottos seem to love them. I have access to IAL and oak leaves...
