Stop Killing Your Guppies With Perfect Water

from The Aquarist’s Edge [Weekly Aquarium Podcast] · host Arthur Preston

This episode exposes one of the most dangerous myths in guppy keeping: that you need perfect water parameters to keep guppies alive. Discover why constant tweaking of pH, hardness, and temperature quietly kills guppies, and learn what these colourful livebearers actually need: stable, mineral-rich water and a calm, consistent routine. Art  breaks down practical guppy care, soft-water strategies, and more. Whether you’re losing guppies in a new setup or your fancy strains just don’t last, this exploration of guppy water parameters, hard water livebearers, and stable aquarium maintenance will help you turn things around.   🎵Music: "Different Kind Of Lonely" (Instrumental) - The Eastern Plan (Epidemic Sound: https://www.epidemicsound.com/music/tracks/9994fed6-9cbe-3acd-8a7d-afcd411d52e6/)
