Hey koty, apologies for misinterpreting your message.
Thanks DH247. Such a confusing topic, at least to me :redface: , you made it sounds so simple. :)
Hey Mike, that is interesting. Care to let us know what's the water parameters in your tank that your successful in breeding these beautiful fishes? Any tricks?
:wink:
Alright guys, thanks for the information. Maybe I should just put in more effort in maintenance.:wink:
But on 2nd thoughts, both are new, about a month old. They should be working fine, shouldn't they. The PH pen is from Hanna Instrument while the PH monitor is some Taiwan import, some brand...
I have a reservoir(actually just a small tub) to prepare the water for my apistogramma tanks. I utilise the PH monitor to monitor the PH. This monitor has a probe which I place in the reservoir permanently. It gives PH readings of around 5 usually.
Lately, I got a new PH pen and got it...
Hi Ed, so nowadays you use your own salt mix to remineralise your RO water? Or do you use the Seachem Equilibrium?
Currently I use direct DI water filter through peat. I did not add anything to remineralise the water. Is there any cuase for concern?
Hey Graham, you mean you decap those eggs prior to hatching them and the hatch rate is good.
Care to share how do we decap these eggs? I got those commercially decapped eggs. I suppose they don't hatch...or will they?
Will a 1cm diameter hole meant for the female suffice?:rolleyes:
Just sweated it out sawing and drilling the PVC pipes. Now tying to glue some soil on it to make it look natural.
Oh, I get what you mean.
Me too, using water soaked in peat in advance for water change. But do you run an air pump in this aged water to circulate it? Or do you just leave it stagnant with the peat inside.
