I've read that natteris are pretty hardy. Is 8.2 ph too high. The care sheet on here say 8 but my tap water is 8.1 -8.2. What is too high for these guys and what is the best way to lower the ph? Thanks
 
It might be pushing it, I would acclimate them very carefully. Maybe add something to the tank to lower the PH just a bit, I kept my reds at around 7.8 and they were fine.
 
hmm iv kept a few and my pH is 8. I would thikn it would be fine but i duno
 
drift wood would be your best bet to lower PH.
