water for soil should be between 5.8 and 6.5, hydroponics uses a slightly lower PH range.

Hey I checked the Ph in my fish tank and its at 6.8 so I think I am just going to use my fish water. Will this be alright?

LMAO, why would you do that, just use tap water, get a ph tester and some drops for 10 bucks and then get some ph down for 5 bucks, and you good to go!

There may be extra nitrogen in the water from the fish shit, and such. I may be wrong, I am just taking a guess, but I know I would never use fish tank water. What are you going to do when it gets low ? fill it up from the tap ? The water PH may change daily, so you need to test it every feeding time! Or atleast I do! cause I have noticed a change in my PH levels!
