I have about 2+ inches of fluorite substrate in my 6 gal



It would be interesting to know water parameters on both tanks- a
substrate that does not leach at ph 8 might at ph 6.

pH was 7.2 on the 15g (I mixed in half RO water and Seachem Acid
Buffer), but I've allowed it to come back up to my tapwater pH of ~7.8
since the discus died. It's always been 7.8 on the 2g and 10g guppy
tank. My tap water has 6dKH so the pH holds very stable.
