Parents and Fry in tap water with ph 7.0

[diamond_discus]

Can the parents and frys do okay with pure tap water tank that has ph = ~7.0 ? I don't want to add any additional chemical to soften and lower the ph, because I don't know if those chemical can be harmful to the fry. Please advise.

Your ph is great! Don't do a thing

They will do fine. We switch to aged tap water once they become wigglers. Our tap water is around 7.6. Have never had any problem with the ph at this level.

Angela why do you guys switch to aged tap water when they become wigglers?
