It's been a few years but i'm back in the hobby. I just got a 150 gallon with rift lake. I got the tank and fish used . The fish look great. The question is; I how important is the ph to these type of fish? I get some pic out there in a bit

If your talking African rift lake cichlids PH isn't as important as is the Hardness and don't take me wrong a PH of 6.0 would be horrible for them becuase it would throw your Hardness out of wack..
I would shoot for a higher PH at 8.0 but a PH at 7.4 with the Hardness between 200 to 400ppm would be ideal.. somewhere in between..

The Brevis Sunspots are doing great, they are coming out of their shells all the time now. They seem to be acclimated very nicely.
Thanks Again!
