now i guess i puffer tank was a lil high (8.4) and a 40% in that tank its down to 8.0. it had 1 weather loach 2 dwarf puffers and 1 oto. i dont think ill need peat anyway unless it spikes again
 
Be careful...I could be wrong, but drastic changes in Ph towards fish if they are already acclimated could prove troublesome. I seem to recall that I read somewhere that you should not have a change of more than .2 a day.
 
oh i think it was .2 a day. it started at like 7.8 and in 2 days thats like .2 a day or it mighta been 8.0
