    Sounds good. Question, doing these constant water changes will it stress out the fish? Just curious.

    Newbee needs help, low low pH levels

    Rivercats, do you think it would be safe to place the driftwood back in the tank. i took it out thinking that is what was causing the low pH. I tested the tap water after 24hrs and it has a pH reading of 7.4 ppm. I do a 25% water change every friday after work.
