Q&A: How important is the alkalinity level in a freshwater aquarium with tropical fish?

Question by Tessa Starr: How important is the alkalinity level in a freshwater aquarium with tropical fish?
My alkalinity level is low (about 20-40 ppm)
Not sure if that’s okay or not =/
Do I need to buy something to raise the level?

And btw I’m just cycling right now, so there’s no fish yet.

Answer by Ghapy
That’s fine – just enough to keep the water stable.

Tropical fish are very tolerant of things like kh, gh, and ph, and messing with it is not worthwhile most of the time. Profiles of fish often show a ph – this is an estimation of the ph in their wild habitat. They are more tolerant of this though, and most of our fish are bred in captivity anyway.

Answer by life is great in southampton uk
you have 2 many fish for that size tank
your water parameters must be checked for ammonia and nitrite i bet they are sky high that is why your fish are sick
you don’t need to add salt treat the cause of the illness
