PH Level?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Many Geos come from white water rivers that have higher pH than black water.
I have had Geo altifrons spawn in water with a pH of 8.00.
Same with G braziliensus and many Gymnogeophagus. As stated by those above. The best way to maintain pH is to do frequent water changes with the tap water you have, just add a dechlorinator.
Below are my fish in pH 8.00 water, all have spawned in it.

Duanes what is your tds like? I had problems with my altifrons getting hith when kept in water with a pH of mid 7 but a high tds around 140-160ppm. It cleared up when I moved them to a different tank with a lower tds of around 80-90 and a lower pH
