bulldogod Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Im setting up a tank with Demasoni and electric yellows and maybe few more later, Tank is 620T so its kinda High so want to but in driftwood. Will it lower PH level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Yes driftwood will - would try to be more helpful but I don't have those types of fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquila Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 I don't think driftwood will stand a chance against calcite sand. It barely does anything in my tank which is suppose to be low pH and gH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elusive_fish Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Are you sure its a good idea to be putting malawi cichlids in a tank with such a small footprint? Especially considering most people here will recommend you get a sizeable mob of dems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 The amount of difference driftwood will make to the pH depends on what else is in the tank with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBLiquidPulse Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Personally I wouldnt put african cichlids in a tank that size. What sort of population were you looking at having? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldogod Posted April 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Really, damn, I thought it would be big enough but kinda jumped into it and didnt do my homework. Was planning on about 12 Demasoni an 6 or so electric yellows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elusive_fish Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 I would have thought youd be looking at a 4ft/240L for a group like that. But see what the more experienced people in here say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
