In addition to what Corailline said: What units? If meq/l that is still only 6.6 dkh, that is too low You just said alk is 2.2, which is it? kh...
Congrats, great fish! I have one in my lower tank and he is always out and about. Very lively, interesting fish. Great price too, I think I paid...
Can you or do you? I usually do so overnight. Depending on the salt mix though, you may be able to do so nearly indefinitely. As long as the salt...
