I have a week old 29 gallon tank I set up a week ago with ghost shrimp who seem to be doing well. They are eating, seem healthy and happy. I used substrate from a well established tank and have a hang on tank and a little heater set at 76 degrees.
I checked my water parameters for the first time and they are as follows
Nitrate 0
Nitrate 0
PH 6
KH 120
GH 180
Do I need to be concerned about the low ph?
I did obtain identical readings on my well stocked 75 gallon community tank and the fish in there are doing well. Only one death in 2 years and it was a cory cat that died in less than 48 hours.
Thanks in advance

PS. using API test strips to test water.
