Well, if its 3-4" ans she's had it for a couple of years...
1) its an exotic and it should not be released.
or
2) its unhealthy 'cuz it should be a lot bigger.

And excuse me because I mispoke earlier. Limestone acts as a buffer, so it makes it very difficult to change the pH. That's probably why you have to add so much decreaser.

And feeders are great, as long as they aren't the disgusting ones from Petsmart or PetCo with the bright colors. Minnows are best.

GL and keep posting questions and problems.

If you do have to get rid of it, try posting in the classifieds. Hopefully you'll find a good home there.
