Just moved, use to have a well functioning tank with a balanced pH of 6.6-6.8.
New house has weird tap water. After dechlorinating
pH reads 6.8
Ammonia sits at 1 ppm
Nitrites at 0
Nitrates at 5 ppm
and is extremely hard.
Only other source of water I have is filtered drinking water which is extremely clean of everything, bacteria, ammonia, you name it. But it has a pH of 5.8-6.
I don;t know which I should use, or how to make whichever I choose safe for my fish.
Any thoughts???!!!!!!!
