Ph and Alkalinity are fine.
The Chlorine is a problem though.
Chlorine is highly dangerous to fish - it burns
their gill membranes making it very hard for them
to breathe. When you add water to the tank, you should
use a water conditioner that removes chlorine and chloramine.
Heres the one I use Prime- 1 500ml bottle treats 5000g. It also removes
ammonia, and nitrites (converts them to a less harmful state)
and heavy metals, and detoxifies NitrAtes. Prime is the best one
on the market, and with your size tank 1 100 ml bottle would last you
1000 water changes, and if you do one a week of 1g (1/3),
thatll last you years and years and years. No other water conditioner
can compare to prime for quality, strength, and performance.
