sharn Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 MTS= multiple tank syndrome :lol: BTS= big tank syndrome im no african expert but i beleive the synos can go in with africans, i dont think the geos can though- they prefer the acidic waters like discus i believe.

dude Posted March 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 haha i think iv nearly got bts i really want one so bad now lol acidic is more towards 6 on the ph chart isnt it i was told by jensens to kep my tank at 7-8 so i keep my tank at about 7.5-8 is this ok and i was told that malawi fish prefer water at 8 so would i stress me geo out if i put the ph up to 8 or 8.5 with crushed coral and dried coral pieces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharn Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 yes, acidic is the lower end of the ph scale. i dont think your geo will be too happy in an african tank, they also have different ways of going about things territory and aggression wise. i dont keep africans so im not too sure what the different species prefer, most keepers keep them around 8 i think.

Afrikan Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 I would just stick with Africans in the higher Ph range... about 8.2 would be fine and dandy... but keep your Geo in acidic conditions... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
