Is This Ph Alright For The Fish I Want To Get?

[sbga]

Hi, my tank has a pH of 7.9, so does my tap water. Will this be alright for south american cichlids, barbs, corydoras, gouramis, and tetras?

also, what about plecos or clown loaches?

These fish would preferably require a ph below 7....this ph would be more suitable for malawi or central a,erican cichlids ...
Try to buffer it down to 6.8/7 for these species

Ok, thanks. Should I just use a chemical such as pH down? Would I have to use it every time I do a water change?
Forgot to mention my tank is still cycling. This shouldnt have an effect on the pH should it?
