Does any keep Stendker discus in soft water? My PH is 6.5 thanks Ed
What about GH/KH?
I've kept Stendkers in 100% R/O with no additives for 5 straight years. They do fine.
Pablos GH 3 and KH 2. I have a planted tank thanks Ed
Thanks Willie Ed
“ The water chemistry data in our hatchery is: general hardness: GH 15, carbonate hardness KH 8, pH value 7, conductivity 800 μs, water temperature 29° – 30° C / 84-86°F.
For our discus fish, the key water parameters have the following tolerances: GH 0 – 30, KH 0 – 25, pH value 4.0 – 8.3, electrical conductivity 150 – 1200 μs. Tolerance for short-term water temperature changes: 25° – 34 ° C / 77 - 93°F.”
Ed my kh-4 gh-1 with a ph of 7.0. Hans discus do fine :)Attachment 130102 and yes a planted tank :). I put them in there at 2.5” over a year ago.
Hey Ed if and when my Stendkers spawn in it is in low TDS [mostly RO] water .
Trying to fire them up now with softer water ..
