I hope to receive some wild P. taeniolatus in the coming month.
My tap water parameters are ph 7.8 and hardness relatively soft, about 150 ppm.
The fish will be going into a 75 gallon aquarium, with some large driftwood, and plenty of plants.
I've been breeding Rift Cichlids for close to 25 years now, and never had to do anything with my water to keep them happy and breeding. I do believe it will be in the Pelvicachromis best health to reduce the ph some in this tank, and am wondering what suggestions people have.
One thing for certain, I do not wish to have miscoloured water, so peat is out of the question.
I might be able to get something to supply me with RO water. Is that a good option?
Thanks in advance.
