[quote=”Sverting” post=1723]From what I’ve read in this forum and the site itself I came to think, that the most important is the 0 KH. The varying pH of several succesful spawnings may point: KH should equal 0, an GH should be as low as it goes. But I doubt that having the GH even up to 8 ( I want it to be around 3-5) is bad.

I doubt that you succeed in having a kH of 0 when having a gH of around 8 …….. And with a higher kH it gets more difficult to have a low pH
The amount of fish you can safely and comfortably put into the tank depends almost solely on the skill to create hideotus, broken lines of sight etc.
That sounds as if there was no limitation of the quantity of fishes in a tank – as long as there are enough plants and obstructed view…… But somewhere there is a limit – and I reach it much earlier than you, obviously …………. Still no definition of right or wrong …..
Hengeli lives alongside Betta coccina, (0-10dh). Pangio semicincta was found alongside Chocolate gouramies, which live with Parosphromenus in Kalimantan Barat.
You asked
So what do you make of it?
but does another opinion really have any influence on your decision? You appear to be already convinced of your plan ….
