got an old ph test kit downstairs
and this pleco is a grower, got one 4 years old downstairs and he isn't even 3 inches, this one already is, i might pull a switcheroo on my paps
and the ph is at 7, so nuetral right?

so i found a ph test downstairs, it read 7
so nuetral?
yeah i've been reading up, i'll up that to 50% water changes a week, or at least more than i have been,
i'm just scared to do much different with them all doing so well the past month

Rohland

Why would you be scared to do more water changes. That is the best thing to keep your fish healthy and happy! They will be even better with fresh clean water more often.

Agree with Rohland! Water changes are great for your fish!
Please try to get the water tested for ammonia and nitrite.

i'm working on the water changes, lost the dwarf guirami male, still full of color when i found him,
so i'm going to get the test for ammonia, but tank is cycled, i'm thinking nitrite spike, or nitrate w/e
seems like all my south american tropicals are happy as a lark though it was a bit overstocked, live and learn
never had a small tank
