I have always wanted to get some Apisto cacatuoides and i was wondering if they will do ok in my tap water. I know apistos like low ph and soft water but i know many people keeping them in our water and even breeding. I wanted to get your oppinions and a little bit of info about my tap water.
I checked on our city's water quality website but i'm not sure what it all means. Usually when people talk about fish they mention GH and KH and TDS but I didn't see those specific things on the site. Concerning hardness i did find these numbers
Total hardness- 164mg/l
Total alkalinity- 117mg/l
ph- 7.8
calcium hardness- 114mg/l

I am unsure what this info means. Do i have hard or soft water? Will Apisto cacatuoides do well in this water? Do you think they might breed?
