I've found minimal information about them online and had a couple questions. The one bit of information I did read is that their native waters have a pH of about 4.0-5.0. I've been thinking about putting together a blackwater setup but I don't think such a low pH would be tolerated by the other fish I had in mind. I've always been told it's easier to acclimate the fish to a certain pH as opposed to maintaining a specific pH, but I'm wondering if this fish is different because it's native to such acidic water.
