Aquarium Advice Regular
Some not so good news today from our LFS, apparently our water board is planning on introducing Chloramine to our water and not just Chlorine, not sure how we go about solving that issue, don’t want it to affect our fish. Also have a sample of our tank water going in for Iron testing tomorrow as we think there is abnormally high levels coming from our taps, which is promoting Hair Algae growth and caused the recent death of our Shrimp!
If Iron is high, how do we go about solving this problem, and what is the recommended level for gH? Our pH has always been low too around 6.2-6.4, but our tank mates have been used to it for a long time, but recently it has dropped to 6.0 and I want to get it sorted. Any ideas?
Really liked the look of the Dwarf Gourami’s I saw for the first time today… what are they like? Would they get along with my other tank mates if I got one, how do they act? Do they have a good character as I’ve never had a Cichlid before?
Also saw a lovely tank full of live rock and invertebrates, very impressive… I’m assuming I can’t have live rock in my tank? What sort of conditions does it need? Many thanks.
