I have a 55 gal tank with 5 black phantom, 2 red eye and 4 serpae tetras. My test kit as well as the fish store's results show my pH consistently around 7.5. I also have well water which has a hard mineral content (unsure of the number). My tetras are doing well but I wanted to add some scavenger, bottom feeders. I heard corydoras are fairly hardy and a good choice for a beginner. I had 6 (spotted, green and albino), none of which survived. What would you choose for my tank? The pH was the only number out of whack. I've treated it a number of times, but I concluded it's going to stay on the high side. The hard water is my guess for killing the corys. Please help. Thank you.
