Low barium, high zinc and iron

Well water? If not that is really bad city water. Hard to give any suggestions(if that is what you want) without knowing the source and how you are treating it already.

I do not consider barium as worthwhile to dose. There’s no reason to think organisms need any.

The iron is not a concern, but the zinc may be. Be certain you have no metal
Parts in the water.

Unless of course you need contrast to x-ray them.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

It depends on how badly I want the fish

Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

I haven’t really considered this before

Something else (see my comments in the thread)
