generally twice a week .... i dun hv a pH kit .... i use litmus paper, generally slightly acidic after a few days around 6+ .... no exact measurement

jap yellow powder (the one with the koi on the packing?) heater simulate bacteria growth? not sure on this part...

Learnt something new today , use of litmus paper . Care to advice where to buy the litmus paper ?Only know I ever used litmus paper for some chemistry experiments in school , now then I know it can be used to test water PH .

yah .... i dun like to as well .... but these STs, no choice .... normally when water parameters are bad .... the signs will show on other fishes especially since i have FF and red hook in there, the first sign is frayed fins .... when i need to go out of town, sometimes i do face this problem when i come back but usually it goes away after one or two water change ....
