As is Craig


as i see it (and im sure we discussed on cichlidfish) fish will ajust to
the water chemestry they are brought up in. any thoughts on this?


I haven't tested water in 40+ years of fish keeping.


i realise that it is hardly ideal, and will yeild strange results during
breeding but if its just a simple case of keeping the fish, then it isnt
that great an issue.


Any fish I have kept have bred on there own, I take nothing to do with it



my local water is pretty hard, (by all accounts, never tested it, its
jsut known) and its rerally hard to grow plants in it, but ive kept and
bred many fish, including discus when i was younger and had no idea
about chemstry and things

Ignorance is usually the best way, then you don't have anything to worry
about other than the fish

Keeping the water clean and healthy is better than trying to change what
you have, remember we don't keep fish we keep water, healthy water =
healthy fish, even if they aren't supposed to live in water with the
parameters you have from the tap.
