 | Blue rams and PH |
Mkcube  Big Fish Posts: 457 Kudos: 153 Votes: 0 Registered: 07-Jul-2003   | How well will blue rams do in a tank with 7.6 pH and medium-hard water(9 or 10 GH)? |

| Veteric Big Fish Posts: 376 Kudos: 549 Votes: 7 Registered: 19-Apr-2004 | as i said on the other forum, 7.6 is fine. My tank is settling somewhere around 7.4. For hardness I'de say decrease it with a water softening pillow, I like to keep my gh nice and low personaly. I'de say still go with blue rams; they look nicer IMO. The real trick with rams and a whole lot of other amazonian fish is to keep the water nice and clean with regular water changes. I do 20% every 7-10 days and its kept thing very clean. |
