Aquarium Advice Addict
Also, your RO water and tank water probably have different pH levels. Remember that you want him acclimated to the pH of the tank as well as temp of the tank.
What I need to know is if the water of the aquariumis safe as it is to the fish. I believe nitrites are coming from Seachem solutions that are vital to the plants. If the answer is yes, I will introduce the fish to this water (and he will aclimate to PH, nitrites, etc). If the water is bad, I got a gallon of "betta fish water", I can have him on a 1/2 gallon bowl until I figure out something.
Thank you.
Yes I am, and I opted to have my source of ammonia being the fish (fish in cycle). Brian used his betta as the source on his 6g and AFAIK, most bettas live for 3 years swimming in water that most fish would die in 24 hrs.
You might want to test your tap water, just to confirm this.
And here we go. Quite funny to see him going down and doing nothing, just enjoying his freedom.
