Dark water for dp

Post by sasiks »

Hello, I have a 120l tank with 6 dwarf puffer. A week ago I completely changed the layout using a lot of woods (because of algae I had problem with plants, the tank looked “empty” and the puffer were bored :? ).
Now, obviously, the water is yellowish. (ph is still 7: I used basic water and replaced the soil with sand).
I never saw a puffer tank with dark water so… do you think it could be a problem for the puffers?
