Ah go **** yourself Carol no one here or anywhere else gives a flying
**** abuyt you and your tetras or any thing else you ramble on about.
Your assinine ramblings and socks are the reason these groups are like
they are, so don;t go laying the blame on others for yur own ****ups
and one sided ways in your perverted world that only hinges on what
is best for you and youo alone. Someone really needs to knock you in
the ****ing head and tell god you died. I doubt anyone would even
miss you.

Opinon is the whole thing and carols do not count.

The softer the water the more energy do fishes need to
transport diffusing water back to outside. This is a
kidneys job and the kidneys are always in danger to loose
important ions. And the management of the ion pumps that
hold these ions back consume a lot of energy..

Which I believe is involved (electrolytes) in these soft water, low PH water
fish being unable to thrive in very hard alkaline water. Bacteria may also
play a part but I believe it's more of an electrolyte problem.

BTW: We are used to keep soft water fishes in soft water and
they feel well. Initiated by soft water their kidneys are
steadily "rinsed" and in this way and in the long term they
aren't in danger to get a renal insufficiency..

Which may be what killed the small tetras I tried to keep here in TN.
Rather than try and keep fish that don't thrive in my water I will stick
with those that do. :-)
