My experience with a range of tetras and rasboras that ostensibly have soft eater requirements is that theyll adapt and do fine, particularly if you get them from a local breeder who breeds in the same water you have. While there are some specific fish where it seems to matter more, I've definitely found that most dont care at all about near-neutral levels (6-8) mostly because the acale is logarithmic - values near 7 (6-8) are all so close together the water just isn't appreciably different. And, as a side note for anyone happening by: never chase values. Unless you want to run a complex system using remoneralized RO watch, do yourself a huge favour and keep your fish in tap water. Unless your water is outside of 6-8... Just dont worry about pH at all. Every water change will maintain a constant ph, and a *constant* ph is way more important than meeting the correct value.

Great input as always mate, I defo want to just stick to my regular water pH from now on rather than trying to tweak it.

My chillis don't really shoal but i only have 5. Maybe I should get a couple more but the tank is nano. They love the micro granules.

@GlassBoxDiaries Ай бұрын

I have only ever kept these 10 so have no experience with smaller groups but mine shoal up a fair bit but it might be due to the other fish in the tank making them think some thing is going to eat them.

@GlassBoxDiaries I think 6 minimum is recommended but unfortunately my LFS sells most things in 5s! They seem happy though

I have 12 and they bunch up pretty often

@@GlassBoxDiaries Sadly, yes. I do as they say, but they die. Some die before I can even get them home. I wish I could keep them alive and happy, but I haven't been able to yet. I always use a cycled quarantine tank and check the water parameters, but I have yet to see them live.

@@JaniceGhostHunter13 Unfortinatley this is a common problem with neon tetras and finding a good source for them is a pain. If you are in the UK I got mine from Kesgrave Tropicals on eBay.

@@GlassBoxDiaries Sounds like a great place but I live in Texas. But now that you mention it, perhaps I'll go online and get some that way! I might go with cardinal tetras instead, they seem a bit more sturdy, but that's a fantastic idea! And for helping a gal across the pond you have gained a subscriber! Hopefully I'll have good news to relay to you in time.

@@JaniceGhostHunter13 Thanks for the sub, I have cardinals in one of my other tanks, they are definatley hardier than my neons so far so I would recommend them over neons if possible. Keep me posted with how it goes :).
