Stocking ideas

[Stefan3289]

I have a well so I can’t check a website for the hardness of my water so I am going to have to order a testing kit, so we will see if I get around to that.

If you also have a fish store nearby they can get the Gh and Kh for free. If you have soft water like me I can give you some recommendations for some nice cichlids for soft water as I’ve had a lot of trial and error over the years

Ok thank you for that tip I don’t have any local pet stores but does petco and pet smart do that?

Pet smart might be able to do it wouldn’t hurt to try

Just make sure you get the actual number, and their unit of measure. It will likly be degrees, but make sure, or possibly ppm. Very different things.

My local Petco does. But they just use Tetra test strips.
