ok.. great.. back to your question..

discus will tolerate a Constant & STABLE ph.. mine is about 7.8.. others have higher.. others have it low like yours..

some try to use chemicals to move it up or down.. and that can lead to other problems..

so, its best to just use the water you have :) :)

don't worries about the corys.. you can always get more.. but some do not tolerate the heat as well.. there are several threads on corys and discus..
