if you bring the ph up a bit you should be ok with them
the ph could probably be dropped back down gradually to what it was i have 4 of them they grow fast are great fish not overly territorial eaither
It's always darkest before dawn ... so if you're going to steal some rocks
from your neighbours garden for your display tank, that's the time to do it.

they like anything really i ahve never had an issue with them . they eat everything they can get to
Bworms Bshrimp mysis live worms tetra bits
carnivore pellets anything they get they eat
strong current not needed only during breeding time
but alot of O2 is essential

no chriss, had a few other expenses pop up so i threw the common whips into the wild tank to get it going.
i just inherited a standed 6 footer though, so when you get fry give me a yell.
