Peat Balls for Sale from Tyne Valley Aquatics

Sorry - I am not selling Peat Balls at present as the quarry I got the peat from has closed. This is a good alternative: http://geni.us/6txv
As 90% of the freshwater tropical fish available to buy originate from South America and Asia it is important to give them suitable water conditions.
Peat balls are an easy way to do that as they contain natural acids and trace elements which will lower pH and benefit fish and live plants.
Assuming you have a properly set up aquarium with aquarium sand and no calcareous rocks (which raise pH) the peat balls should slowly reduce the pH to around 6.5 over 1-2 weeks and hold it there for months. 
Ensure that you have very good filtration (see section at end of video showing Biohome Ultimate media) your water changes should be minimal (due to reduced nitrate from media) and your tank will be perfect for all fish requiring pH under 7.0.
