75 Gallon High 7.82 Ph Will These Fish Be Ok?

I have a 7.82 PH, but soft water (GH/KH 4). Our tap water here is 7.9. My previous location had a 7.0 PH.

I really do not want to add pressure CO2 this time. I have a Finnex Planted 24/7 CC, and want to avoid CO2 doing low/med plants with light fert dosing.

Fish I would like to keep:
German Blue Rams (Breed these in lower PH in community tank)
Angel Fish
Severum
BN Pleco's
Butterfly Fish

I am way over filtered and cycled. I would prefer not to add any chemicals to affect PH. Peat moss makes the water like tea, so that's not an option.

Will I be OK if I acclimate slowly?

 

As long as they are all captive bred they should do fine at 7.9. However not all of those fish are compatible.

You don't need to worry about the water chemistry. The vast majority of fish you pick up at the local pet store will be fine in the vast majority of public water supplies. You just need to treat the tap water with a product that removes chlorine and chloramine and detoxifies ammonia and nitrite. Have you checked to make sure all the fish will get along in this "Community" tank?

oldsalt777. The tank has been setup for 3 months using the fishless cycle method. I appreciate the feedback and agree testing your water quality is a vital part in the success of the fish. I was more worried about the fish themselves adjusting and having a great life. I know most the fish I like that will get along are South American Cichlids that usually like software water.

My previous tank, I was always getting store credit for locally bred GBR's, but my water was much softer. I am one of those guys that believes in a lot of plants, over filtration, and regular water changes.

@BottomDweller. From my research all of the fish should be compatible. Which do you think will cause a problem?

 

Bristlenose plecos need cooler water than angels and german blue rams. A clown pleco would work better.

I don't think severums and angels would be a good mix but I am not experienced with these fish so I'll leave that to someone else. I have heard quite a few stories of severums bullying angels. It will depend on the individual fish and tank setup though.

I have heard of african butterfly fish bullying angelfish before.

That is a shame. I do not like the Clown Pleco. I really like the look of the Green Dragon Longfin BN Pleco's... I also like the Otocinclus, as I think they are fun to watch as a group... I like Shrimp and while I will have a lot of plants and hiding places, shrimp will be food not friends. Maybe I won't need a cleanup crew.... I do like Apple Snails.
