Hey gilpi i live in keansburg in monmouth county. My town uses reverse osmosis to purify drinking water. I read about reverse osmosis and fish tanks. My tap water is also 7 to 8 but once added to a tank it has no buffering capabilities when it mixes with tank water and will crash. Something like...

Yea I live in NJ and I think we have the same water problem. I added more crushed coral last night and the ph is at 6.3 right now and its not dropping.

I have a couple of barbs and mollys. They're acting fine swimming around no problem. I had them for couple of weeks.

I have a electronic ph reader that's been calibrated. I bought the API liquid master kit to check if my ph reader was broken and it shows 6. But that's as low as it gets. I don't have driftwood just plastic decorations. I have flora max. And I also use argonite/crushed coral.

Definitely return the fish, Its not going to get any better. I had similar problems with gouramis. I tried putting the aggressive fish in a fish net for a couple of days to help them adjust to one another but when I released the fish it went back to to chasing and attacking other fish. I also...

Hey guys. So I'm lost on what to do about my ph levels. Doesn't matter what I do my ph levels drop to low 4. I don't over feed, tank is not crowded. I do use co2 but at only about 1bubble per 2 or three seconds. I use flourish, excel and root tabs. I actually been doing small water changes every...

What's up people. So I got this set up from aquacave Milwaukee MC122 pH Controller and CO2 Regulator Milwaukee MA957. I don't have a clue on how to set up the ph controller. The instructions aren't the best. Everything is hooked up. But I don't understand how to work the controller. How do you...

Hey guys so I wanted to know if I can add anything else to make my plants grow. So far I'm using flourish tabs, flourish flourish excel and flourish. Trying to stay away from co2. 55g tank with 4ho bulbs.

We'll see tomorrow. Lights are off for the night, maybe I'll rearrange little bit tomorrow. I was also thinking adding more guppies, maybe a bigger school will help. Sent from my SM-G920T using Aquarium Advice mobile app

So today I went to pets smart and picked up 5 guppies. I like the way they look when swimming in a school. But it's been a couple of hours now and they're hiding in my plants. My blue gourami and my rainbow fish are chasing them around. I don't think they're going to get along. Sent from my...

I just replaced my EHEIM filter with the national geographic cf 50 filter. It's really quiet, it comes with everything you need to install it. The water flow is good, no complaints. Sent from my SM-G920T using Aquarium Advice mobile app

It's a 45g ista co2 system

It's for pressurized system.

Where can I get a solenoid

I was wondering if there is a automatic on/off valve for co2. I don't want to run co2 all day since I come home from work when the lights shut off, wasting co2
