Max Ph For Aro

[Moonriver]

Have just set up a new tank with sump. Total capacity is around 800 L, this is inclusive of sump. Tank has been running around 2 weeks, added 3 silver dollar to test the water and all is ok. Yesterday i obtained a PH and GH reading. The PH is sitting steady at 8.10 and the GH is around 100 ppm. Prior to moving an Aro in this tank, i wish to know if it safe to keep this fish at a constant PH of 8.10

Bro, it depends on what Aro u r rearing. Its okay for a Malaysian Golden between
Ph 6 ~ 8 but if u r rearing Super Red its advisable to keep it between 6 ~ 6.5 :teeth_smile:

Hi may i know what is the suggested ph for rtg? Thanks in advance

[REDCLOUD]

in general aros are kept between 6 - 7.2 pH

8 is too high is it not? Are using Coral Chips in your setup?
