Different fish need different pH. I keep African cichlids and they need a high pH of around 8. Many other tropical fish like neons, etc. prefer a lower pH. Its easier to choose the fish to fit the water, because then you wont have to treat it every week when you do […]
I dont think they are hard to keep, especially if you choose fish that will be happy in your tap water without adjustment. What is your pH?

Peace, please!
