I've always tried to match the temperature pretty close expecially when I do a fairly large water change.
My breeding tank sits at 28 degrees, won't it be a bit of a shock to the fish putting a bucket of 20 degree water in there?

I change the water straight from the garden hose. You should use a dechlorinater of some sort but i havent had chlorine in my tap water for a long time( I live in Duncraig ).
The reason the fish tend to spawn, and I use this most of the time, is that it is like the tide is changing or a different season and that is when the spawn in the wild when fresh water and temps of the water change in the lake.
As for the change in temp if youre only changing 25% or less its fine my fish all swim in the flow of the water from the hose so it cant be too bad.

I know in South Perth, the water is quite dirty and acidic. It's amazing the difference in water for only a few km's. Must be coming from a different reserve.

Doing a chlorine test is the easiest test to do grab a pool test kit and fill to the line and add a dpd #1 tablet and shake if it turns pinkish red youve got chlorine the more colour the more chlorine.

Just a note on chlorine, spoke to water corp re chlorine. They have chlorine in all scheme water just varying degrees, more in hotter weather.
