A pH of 7 is neutral, below 7 is acidic and if over 7 the water is alkali. As the pH is to the power of ten (i. e. one-unit change means ten and two units mean 100) changing the pH must be carried out carefully to avoid any erratic changes.<\/p>\n<p>There is no general advice for an optimum pH. Depending on their origin, ornamental fish have very different needs. For example fish from South America live in a very acidic environment (pH less than 7), however chichlids from East African inland waters live in alkaline water (pH more than 7).<\/p>\n<p>If the ph is too high we recommend the carefull acidification of the water by using&nbsp;<a title=\"AQUAVITAL BLACK PEAT\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aquarium-munster.com\/en\/fresh-water\/aquavital-care-products\/aquavital-black-peat.html\">AQUAVITAL BLACK PEAT<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a title=\"AQUAVITAL GRANU-PEAT\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aquarium-munster.com\/en\/products\/aquavital-care-products\/aquavital-granu-peat\/\">AQUAVITAL GRANU-PEAT<\/a>. To increase the pH place chalky stone or gravel in the water.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=&#8220;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8220;3.12.2&#8243; custom_padding=&#8220;0px|0px|60px|0px&#8220; global_module=&#8220;53385&#8243; prev_background_color=&#8220;#000000&#8243;][et_pb_row global_parent=&#8220;53385&#8243; _builder_version=&#8220;3.0.47&#8243; background_size=&#8220;initial&#8220; background_position=&#8220;top_left&#8220; background_repeat=&#8220;repeat&#8220;][et_pb_column type=&#8220;3_4&#8243;][et_pb_text global_parent=&#8220;53385&#8243; _builder_version=&#8220;3.12.2&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h1>Ask us what fish like about us!<\/h1>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8220;1_4&#8243;][et_pb_button global_parent=&#8220;53385&#8243; button_url=&#8220;\/en\/contact&#8220; button_text=&#8220;Contact&#8220; _builder_version=&#8220;3.12.2&#8243; custom_button=&#8220;on&#8220; button_text_color=&#8220;#ff1919&#8243; button_use_icon=&#8220;off&#8220; box_shadow_style=&#8220;preset1&#8243; box_shadow_color=&#8220;rgba(255,25,25,0.3)&#8220; url_new_window=&#8220;on&#8220; \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&lt;div class=&#8220;et_pb_module et_pb_dmb_breadcrumbs_1 et_pb_dmb_breadcrumbs&#8220; style=&#8220;visibility: hidden;&#8220;&gt; &lt;ol&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&#8220;https:\/\/www.aquarium-munster.com&#8220;&gt;Startseite&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;\/li&gt; &lt;\/ol&gt; &lt;\/div&gt; <div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_0 et_pb_row_empty\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div> pH &#8211; The degree of acid in the water The pH-value indicates the degree of acid in the water.
