i just aquired a pair of 1" cacatuoides. Im wondering if i should bother lowering the PH using peat. In general, how often should the peat be replaced to keep the ph constant.
IME they will appreciate lower pH values, however, peat treated water proved very tricky for me - they do not like ellivated TDS levels so I would almost recommend using RO water instead, or atleast limiting the amount of peat used.
okay. can anyone tell me at what size do Cacats sexually mature. my male is chasing my female around and it seems to be stressing her out. sometimes, she swims tilted.
i added a large peice of driftwood to make the water more acceptable.
