l dunn feed BH to all my discus i feed sera pellets . This morning just did a 60% of WC but after a few hours, there are still many black gains remain on the PB like no sign of getting better.

Is it due to the PH ? as all the PB were used to live in water of PH 7, now it is living in water of 6 does it affect it ?

PH is not much of a problem as long as the water is clean (low waste).
