I have a tank with Rams and tertas, lots of plants and a nice piece of malysian driftwood. Should I add Almond Leaf extract?
 
To simulate their normal environment. I do this for my Betta, but it would produce a more normal environment for other South Americans too.
 
well, although ive heard rams are sensitive, i had a spawning without it (did have lots of driftwood) and they were always happy. is it not more an asian thing? im not hot on the subject
 
Mine spawned without too. Just always looking to have optimum conditions.
 
It would lower the pH and provide more natural environment.

lower the water hardness first

I started using RO water, so the hardness is 0. I had buffer to increase the KH and protect against a great pH drop.
