Well in the freshwater world it depend on the fish that you are keeping
as to which tank is easier to maintain. It is true that Ammonia is less
toxic with a lower pH but is sure to be hoped that once the nitrogen
cycle is complete that ALL tanks will have zero Ammonia....and even in a
lower pH tank it is for sure that Ammonia followed by Nitrites do not
have a good impact on your fishes health....



Reefs and coral-based life I can't answer for, because I don't know
that all of them prefer being bound to Aragonite and Apatite versus
sand. Anemones almost certainly prefer the Calcium base. More motile
beings might prefer a substrate with decaying plant matter, like black
soil or peat moss.

So why are you posting to a reef group......a marine tank needs a high
pH.......under no circumstances should you be adding black water into a
reef tank or even a FOWLR or just plain Marine Tank.....Now a sof****er
South American freshwater tank might do better that way but this is a
marine/reef group......

You've just won a trip to Los Angeles, and if you believe that, then
we hope you farm mushrooms, because we hav a much more expensiv line
of manure to sell you.

Yeah, you want to keep people in the dark and sell them sh*t....that way
if you are selling marine mushroom colonies you can blame your
customer's for not following your advice of keeping them at low pH.....

As it happens, I do happen to aim at farming aquatic fungus.
At least I think that's what sponges are. That's certainly
what they look like: Morel mushrooms. Then there's a couple with the
distinctive fruiting body containing the mycelium of a mushroom.

Anybody else got that clue? Got any better evidence that sponges are
mostly aquatic fungus?


Well I would suggest until you do more research you stick to farming
fungus of the edible mushroom variety......

Of course, I have been a bit harsh here and if you are genuine please
come back and ask for proper advice......
