Boston Bill Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 My tank is almost 3 months old. I have an albino pleco, Hillsdale loach, 6 pristella tetras, German blue ram, 2 platys, 7 baby platys, 4 Julie and 4 black loaches, a lot of plants and some shrimp. Everything looks good? Except for the hi ph. Should I be worried about the hi ph? I am using Father Fish substrate with his additive pack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ph there isn’t to high I would say, looks like 7.6 or maybe a tad higher, I would not worry about it unless those fish require lower ph @Boston Bill. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllFishNoBrakes Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Agreed that you shouldn’t chase pH. If the fish are doing well, let them. No point in stressing everyone out, yourself included, chasing a number that doesn’t matter most of the time. I’ve had 14 tanks for almost 4 years, and I’ve tested pH maybe 3 times. Focus on consistency and you’ll be good. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
