Soothing Shrimp Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 For sulawesi has anyone tried cichlid substrate to raise their ph, and just use regular gh+? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soothing Shrimp Posted December 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 What ph does yours keep at, and how long did it take to stabilize around there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soothing Shrimp Posted December 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Thanks. I'm thinking about doing the same substrate. Do you keep yours in a tenner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricM Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Thanks. I'm thinking about doing the same substrate. Do you keep yours in a tenner? its in a 9G truaqua tank, with 3" HMF filter and small ugf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted December 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I'm just planning on a cheap tenner. Have they bred for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibikaie Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Is there any info on the water of these Sulawesi lakes beyond the standard temp, pH, GH? What else is in the water, or do we not know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted December 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 You mean to act as a trigger for breeding? I've not looked into that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibikaie Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Just in general. I like chemistry, and I think it impacts aquatic inverts a lot more than fish or plants. So any information is useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted December 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I'm too lazy to do that much research. LOL aquariumlover10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
