I totally agree with u and bozo! I actually range from 5.7 to 6.0. Maybe I wasn't clear. I also totally agree that ur plants should tell u they r OK. However I think her plant could look OK for a while@ 6.3 but I'd be nervous that it's inviting a problem. Said problem could be easily avoided by dropping a couple points. I also don't think it's any harder to fix ur water to 6.0 6.1 5.8 than it is to get it to 6.3. Just my opinion and both u and bozo r probably much more experienced than me so I'd listen to u guys all day. Just think 6.3 isn't going to be a safe number in the long run. I've never ever had a ph problem in coco and don't feel like I'm chasing numbers. Just keep in in the tried and true numbers for coco!Tnelz, I like to let it range between 5.8-6.2, with occasional forays outside those parameters. HOWEVER, what's most important here is to use the plants as your guide instead of just chasing numbers. If growchick's plant is looking really good, then I wouldn't change anything just yet. Killed too many fish making changes trying to chase numbers.
