What pH values does Ancistrus prefer? I have a group of L-183 (I think) in a tank together with some Apistogramma mendezi. The pH in the tank are now 6.5, but the dwarf cichlids prefer a pH value down to 5 - 5.5. Is it possible to breed the Ancistrus in such acid water? I know it is possible to keep them in this pH value, because I?ve had them in a tank with pH 5 for more than one year while they were getting mature, but now they sould be mature, so I think it's time to breed them now. They aren't that hard to breed, are they?
