I am running a newly set up planted tank with community type fish.
I seem to have very hard water.....
PH .. 7.8 (water suplier shows an 8.4 PH average for my area)
GH .. 7 dgh or 125.3 ppm
KH .. 4 dkh or 71.6 ppm
My question is how this is going to affect my tank?? And any sujestions on how to deal with it??
The tank has been running for a month now...and I have already had a big ick problem.
I am wondering if the high PH stress factor could have caused the ick??
Tank You .. Dave
