A. Cacatuoides biotope with a higher pH

Hello,

I'm trying to set up a bit of a biotope tank for some Cockatoo cichlids, but I don't really like the look of blackwater tanks. I've read that A. Cacatuoides also lives in places where the pH is higher (I imagine those places have clearer water as well), but I can't really find anything about it. Does anyone here have info about or pictures of those places?

Thanks!

Harder water habitats likely have white water, or are influenced by white water. Some of the clear water habitats, such as morichales in Venezuela, can be just as acidic and soft as black water.
